The light changes. The temperature shifts from cool mornings into warm, golden afternoons. The outdoor cafes fill up, the archaeological sites empty out, and the whole city starts living outside again.</p> <p>If you have any flexibility in when you visit Athens, <strong>March through May is the window to aim for.</strong> You get better weather than winter, far fewer crowds than summer, lower hotel prices, and the kind of comfortable sightseeing conditions that let you spend a full day walking without melting by noon.</p>
