The Neighborhood:
The area:
Kifissia is a lovely northern suburb of Athens, with roots steeped in ancient history dating back to the Greek philosophers. There are two bus stops within two blocks, north and south, of the apartment, and it's 30-minutes or less into the heart of Athens.
Many of Kifissia's wealthy residents choose to live here rather than in the city. Restored nineteenth-century mansions and villas reign elegantly along quiet tree-lined streets. There are several squares and parks, offering a leafy respite from the city. There are numerous shops, cafes, and restaurants along the shaded streets of Kifissia. There are plenty of things to do on the entertainment side, including a mall, Cinemax Theater, bowling center, and bars. The Mall Athens is about 1.3 miles away. Helexpo - Kifissia is 1.7 miles, the Golden Hall and Olympic Stadium (O.A.K.A.) are both 1.8. But many visitors find that a pleasant stroll along Kifissia's pretty, tree-lined streets is often entertainment enough.
The nearby mountains offer cooler weather, which is why many wealthier Athenians own second homes there. You can head over the mountains to find the fabulous beaches of Attika.
