I liked the vastness of the collection, I enjoyed the explanations given with each. The museum itself is huge... I couldn't do it justice in 3 hours. What could have been better is the layout... there are too many directions to go in, after every room and one realizes later that there are rooms that have been missed out. I... More

A totally astonishing museum with mind-blowing treasures. Well worth allocation a lot of time to. More

A must see BUT all the interior/corridor rooms, the vase and small bronze collections are closed. Such an important collection BUT a lack of interest in keeping it ALL open. They say it's lack of guards on any particular day BUT these areas are always closed. More

There is now an exhibition showing the Antikythera mechanism. It will go on until April 28, 2013. Don't miss it! More

There are very famous individual pieces but the collections of pottery and goldware are stunning as well. Hard to imagine a visit to Greece and its... More

This is by far the most important museum in Athens, and in all of Greece. Do not assume, if you have visited the Acropolis Museum, that a visit to this one would be superflous or boring. On the contrary, if you only have time for one museum in Athens, make it this one. It has a far more interesting, extensive,... More
