Location

The Acropolis rock, with its characteristic trapezoidal shape, dominates the city of Athens, at an altitude of 157m. above the sea-level and at a distance of 4,70kms from the coast of Attica. In a naturally fortified and inaccessible site, the hill oversees the Attic plain to the sea.
The archaeological site of the Acropolis and its Slopes is bordered at its southern part by the pedestrian of Dionysiou Areopagitou Street, at the east and north by the neighborhoods of Anaphiotika and Plaka, the Archaeological site of the Areopagos Hill and the Ancient Agora [Thrasyllou, Stratonos and Theoria streets] and at the west by the Odeion of Herodes Atticus. The main entrance of the archaeological site is at the West Slope, close to Theorias Street. The South Slope of the Acropolis, at the junction of Thrasyllou str. and the pedestrian Dionysiou Areoparitou, also forms not only a main but an alternative entrance to the archaeological site, near the Acropolis Museum.
