Question

Can i get into athens as my first destination using my schengen visa which i applied in italian embassy?

Answer 1

I started with france with a german embassy visa this was 4 yrs ago

Answer 2

Officially when you apply for a Schengen visa you should apply to the embassy of the country which is your main destination (the one you spend the most time in).

If this is not known then it is the country of entry to the Schengen zone.

So assuming that Italy is your main destination, then to enter at Athens is not a problem

This is assuming that there are no restrictions listed e.g. only to Greece or Italy, or that neither country is possible (this is listed on the first line)

You can read more in the paragraph starting "To obtain a Schengen visa, a traveller must take the following steps"

Answer 3

Yes, if it's valid for all schengen states or at least for Greece in addition to Italy.

No, if it's valid for Italy only.
