Piraeus is a port city and the fifth-largest municipality in the whole country. Apart from the famous port and the visitors it attracts, Piraeus is a beautiful city with a rich history and a long coastline, offering lots of entertainment, dining, and accommodation options. If you’re in the mood for some sightseeing, head to the Electric Railway Museum to learn the history behind the Athens-Piraeus railway line. Another must-visit site in Piraeus is its Archaeological Museum, where you will admire relics, statues, ceramics, and much more dating from the Mycenaean era to the Roman period. Beside the museum, you can also see the ruins of the 3rd century BC Ancient Theatre of Zea. The Hellenic Maritime Museum is also worth visiting as it displays 2,500 seafaring exhibits and describes the long maritime past of Greece.

If you want to explore the coastline on foot, you can roam around the Bay of Zea, after your visit to the museum. A really enjoyable walk you can take from Marina Zeas is towards the east to Mikrolimano or to the west to Piraiki. Alternatively, you can walk the whole coastal route from Piraiki to Pasalimani (Marina Zeas) and to picturesque Mikrolimano. If you have the energy to explore the city on foot, the whole route is utterly rewarding. You will pass by numerous restaurants, cafes, and tavernas, as well as the ancient seaside walls, Neosoikoi, and the archaeological site of Terpsithea Square, dating from the Roman era. And, if you fancy some exquisite dining after your long walk, head to Varoulko Restaurant for the ultimate culinary experience to taste gourmet dishes made by Michelin-awarded chef Lefteris Lazarou.
