STREETS OF ATHENS

Despite the justified worries of the city planners during the end of the 19th century, the prospect of a center supporting the growth that Athens would reach as a city never materialized.

Athens is neither proud of its street-planning nor its arterial roads, but even the traffic congestion that can be observed on the streets of the Greek capital could have a positive side: a constant movement of people and vehicles that gives the impression of an endless wakefulness. One of a city that is called upon to live in the pulse of modern day life.

HOT SPOTS - What we propose

GRAFFITI ART

Keep your eyes open! The walls of Athens have many stories to tell. Don’t go by the graffiti and the stencils of the city without taking a good look. Many times they hide masterpieces of street art. After all, Athens is famous for them!
