Piraeus is a port city situated in the Greater Athens Area in Greece. It has a vast history that dates to ancient Greece. The city was established in the early fifth century BC when plans were put in place to build Athens’ new harbour. Piraeus is now a massive maritime, commercial-industrial centre and location of Greece’s largest harbour. It is a metropolis teeming with art, architecture, and activity; and is an essential element of Athens due to its proximity to the capital city.
