I decided to go to the Ancient Agora for my 6 hour layover at Athens. It is easy to find from the metro station. After I paid for the entrance fee, the lady at the booth just gave me the ticket and was finished with me. Be sure to ask for a map of the place. Even with the map,... More

We went to this site and again had to pay, the lady asked if we had been to the Acropolis and we said yes, the day before, but as we didn't have our ticket we had to pay in but no-one at the Acropolis told us that our ticket got you into other sites. This was well worth the visit. More
