One of the most prestigious and stately neighborhoods in central Athens, featuring neoclassical and modernist architecture, designer boutiques, Parisian cafés-bistros, chic restaurants, and art galleries. Above Kolonaki rises the evergreen Hill of Lycabettus, which provides the most picturesque views of the city. It is recommended to ascend to the summit for an Instagram-worthy photo opportunity and a visit to the small chapel of St. George. While in Kolonaki, you have the opportunity to explore the Benaki Museum, the Museum of Cycladic Art, the National Garden of Athens, and the Museum of the History of Greek Costume. Kolonaki is renowned for its posh and sophisticated ambience, while also being very welcoming and diverse, making it a sought-after location for socializing with its “beautiful people”.
