To ponder about civilisation, mankind, and the world, you can't beat Athens. And to truly appreciate our humanity, you do have to visit the museums in Athens. Luckily for us, a girlfriend with serious style AND intellect, has told us which museums are a must, and in which order.

I only marked the first one, the National Archeological Museum on the map, but thankfully the other three are all within a 5-10 minute walking distance from each other.

Do not skimp, do not miss.
