Current Event-Where is the beautiful place in Athens?


There is a very beautiful place in Athens, it is the Lycabettus Hill, and some people said that the Lycabettus Hill makes Athens popular and better. This hill is tallest hill in Athens, and it is at about 900 feet above sea level. This hill is really beautiful, and also the view on the top is gorgeous, so we need to buy tickets to climb the hill. When you climb up that hill, you can see the view of almost the entire Athens city. It is beautiful in the day time, but it is more beautiful when the there is sunset, and many couples went there that time, because they think it's romantic. The most beautiful time is at night, because there are colorful lights on the hill. And at night when you climb up to the top of the hill, you will see the entire city is like the sky with the stars. Because imagine that the black part of the city is the sky at night, and the lights are just like stars. Many visitors trek up the hill during the day, but at night it’s best to take the funicular to the top. It runs every 30 minutes until 2:30 a.m. from the corner of Aristippou and Ploutarchou in the Kolonaki neighborhood; tickets cost 5.50 euros.
