GaryT-UK Posted May 1, 2014 #1 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I have a day in Piraeus this summer, but have already been to the main sites in Athens & the Corinth canal. I was thinking about just having a walk about in Piraeus, but wondered if there is anything to see there. Has anyone else just explored the port area? Thanks, Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24butterfly Posted May 1, 2014 #2 Share Posted May 1, 2014 (edited) There's a museum around there, and also as you walk toward the train station, there's a street (food things) market....Other than that, I really have found nothing....

Morgans Posted May 1, 2014 #3 Share Posted May 1, 2014 There is a pleasant marina and shops and restaurants nearby. Good place for coffee and food etc. Keep walking past the archaeological museum and towards the water and you will come to it. There are some nice walks along the harbour side and marina.

Rare cruisemom42 Posted May 2, 2014 #4 Share Posted May 2, 2014 The small archaeological museum is well worth the (modest) admission price. They have some great bronze statues there, discovered in Piraeus, that are the equal of anything in the Athens museum. There's a Tourist Information booth in the Terminal building that will be happy to give you a map and show you where the museum and other things are located.

GaryT-UK Posted May 3, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted May 3, 2014 (edited) Thanks everyone - a museum & marina walk sounds like a great day to me, so I'll do a bit more research on that now! Edited May 3, 2014 by GaryT-UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
