Cloudy day in Athens? Don't change your plans. ☁️
Athens has a different kind of beauty when the clouds roll in — and October is the perfect time to experience it.
Start with a walk through the Ancient Agora, where history, nature and some of the city's most impressive ancient monuments come together.
And if the weather stays cloudy?
