The Orange Line runs through the city center, taking you to major attractions around the Acropolis and beyond. Explore the historic Plaka district, see Hadrian’s Arch, and visit the Temple of Olympian Zeus. Stop at Syntagma Square to see the Hellenic Parliament and its famous guards. Stroll along Ermou Street for shopping, visit the Panathenaic Stadium—home of the first modern Olympic Games—and admire the National Library. You can also stop by the National Archaeological Museum or wander through Monastiraki and its flea market, before exploring the charming neighborhood of Thissio.

Yellow Line − Glyfada
Enjoy the Athenian Riviera, starting from the Planetarium stop on the Blue Line. Discover how this coastline has evolved into one of Greece’s most cosmopolitan areas. From the Stavros Niarchos Foundation area to Alimos Marina, the Yellow Line blends modern life with seaside views. Watch the sunset from Marina Flisvou, or swim and sunbathe at Agios Kosmas. From the Glyfada terminal, explore stylish suburbs, shop, relax in a café, or visit a beach bar for a drink by the sea.
