The picturesque town with local fish tavernas, restaurants, cafes and bars provides lounge ambience. The green pine trees and crystal waters gives you a valuable sense of mind and body relaxation!

It was created thanks to a pioneer devotee of archaeology, who carried out by himself the hard work of preserving the ancient findings of Trizinia, Christos Fourniades. Fourniades started to collect, by his own initiative, the scattered ancient findings of the area and gather them at the Municipal Office of Poros. In 1958 Fourniades, supported by the Municipal Council of Poros, had already proceeded with the foundation of an Archaeological Collection on the island.

About Athens

Athens sets the Acropolis above a sprawling modern capital, where ancient ruins, hillside lanes and long taverna evenings sit side by side.

The Parthenon crowns the Acropolis, flanked by the Erechtheion and its porch of caryatids, and the Acropolis Museum at the foot of the hill displays sculpture found on the rock. Around it, the Ancient Agora, the Temple of Olympian Zeus, Hadrian's Arch and the marble Panathenaic Stadium make the classical city easy to walk through.

Top-ranked sights in Athens: Acropolis, Parthenon, Acropolis Museum.
