Self-Guided Podcast Walking Tour: The Sunken City of Athens

Look past the towering Parthenon and the modern concrete blocks, and you will find a secret city hiding in plain sight.

Discover tiny, sunken medieval churches that survived 19th-century demolition campaigns, were swallowed by modern hotels, and were built entirely from recycled ancient temples. Uncover the hidden medieval heart of the modern metropolis.
