A selection of high-end hotels lines the pristine stretch of beaches down to the southernmost point of the Attica Peninsula.

The night club, Island, is bringing back the glamour and excitement of the twentieth century bouzouki clubs reminiscent of names such as Melina Mercouri and Stavros Niarchos.Athens is experiencing a revivalÑin art, night life and design. For a metropolis constantly associated with the past, the modern strides in development and culture are sometimes overlooked in favor of the ruins and artifacts from antiquity. When in fact, the juxtaposition only enhances the beauty of both. Athens Riviera puts the old-world beside the new-world and a deeper understanding of this ancient capital emerges. With one foot in the past and one foot in the future; access to both the electricity of city life and the tranquility of a beach side resort, Athens cannot be defined in simple terms. One just has to experience it for themselves.DETAILS300 pagesover 200 illustrationsEnglish languageReleased in May 2020W 9.85 x L 13 x D 1.5 inLinen HardcoverISBN: 97816142894636.33 lbs.ABOUT THE AUTHORStŽphanie Artarit began her career as a journalist, and worked as a psychoanalyst for many years in Tokyo.

Exposure to direct sunlight will cause discoloration, and high temperatures will break down the binding. While storage in a dark room is fine, take care to ensure it is not too humid or damp, as exposure to moisture will lead to degradation in the paper, and warp the boards and paper.Avoid direct exposure to water, oils, and other liquids Ñ ItÕs best to keep away any liquids, oils or perfumes, for if they come into contact with the book, its slipcase or clamshell, they may remove ink or color; wrinkle pages or tip-on photographs; or lead to discoloration, warping, or further damage.Store your books upright with adequate room to breathe Ñ To ensure their lasting quality, Assouline books should be stored vertically, never diagonally, on a shelf beside a supportive book-end, wall, or other book, while taking care to ensure thereÕs enough space so as to avoid any friction that could cause damage to the delicate exterior.Routine upkeep Ñ As accumulating dust can encourage mold and mildew growth, a regular dusting using a soft paintbrush away from the shelf is encouraged to preserve the pages and spine.Made in Italy No Bids Please: We understand wanting to make sure you get a great deal.
