Stop At: Aegina Waterfront, Aegina Town Greece

Aegina is a lovely island in close distance to Athens. This is why it gets very popular as a weekend destination for the Athenians.

The most important sight in Aegina Greece is the Ancient Temple of Athena Aphaia, constructed in the 6th century BC.

The Temple of Aphaia is one of the major attractions that one can see on the island of Aegina. Built on a hill, at 160 meters, it is surrounded by pine trees and it stands out for its unique energy. Since prehistoric times (1300 B.C.) it has been a unique place of worship!
