Parks & Nature

Philopappos Hill or Mouses Hill Go up this hill any time of the day, and you'll find a breath-taking view of the city and its surroundings! Walk through hilly but shady nature paths, overlooking the Acropolis and the city from above. Feels like you are walking through ancient times among the muses of the hill! Prepare some comfortable shoes and a small bottle of water. Early morning hours are the best! Wonder about and find out Socrates Prison, Pnyx and Church of Agios Dimitrios! Open 24h.

Food Scene

Beautiful candle lit local cafe and bar in Plaka, dedicated to actress-political activist Melina Mercouri. It features a very warmly decorated space, decorated in 60's era pictures of the actress herself; the staff is very friendly and the prices are quite reasonable. We loved their cheesecake and ice-cappuccino!! Opening hours: 9AM–3AM
