Having given birth to Western civilization, it's no wonder all Greece wants to do now is kick back and relax.
Modern-day Greece is the ultimate work-to-live society - everything in this ancient land seems geared towards leisure.
Eating is Greeks' favourite pastime - multi-course meals take up significant chunks of the day and are often enjoyed alfresco, accompanied by friends and family and a steady stream of ouzo.

People don't often think of the mainland when they think about Greece, but here in Attika, there's plenty of beaches, tavernas and historical sites to wet your appetite. Local sites which I have been to are the Acroplois at Rhamnous, Sounion, Temple of Vravrona at Artemis. I live in Nea Makri which is alive with Tavernas and bars. A great hub for visiting the sites of Attika. For information on Historical sites in Greece visit www.culture.gr
