Plaka District

Plaka District

Welcome to Athens’ charming Old Town. Wander around the streets here and you’ll feel like you’re in a traditional Greek village rather than the country’s capital. See wooden balconies draped in bougainvillea and bob in and out of tiny boutique shops and tavernas. Keep cool with an ice cream as you explore.
