Photos of Mount Lycabettus

Lycabettus, about 300 meters above sea level, is the commanding height of Athens and can be seen from almost every place in Athens. The top of Lycabettus Hill has a wide view and is a good place to overlook the panoramic view of the city of Athens and enjoy the sunset. When the weather is clear, you can also overlook the port of Peres in the western suburbs of Athens and the Gulf of Saronicus. There is a theatre on the hill, an all-white stone church - St George's Rock Church and some restaurants with a view. You can choose to walk to the viewing platform on the top of the mountain, or recommend the way to take the cable car.
