Your secret place in Athens is...

Mount Lycabettus

The highest hill in Athens is a great viewpoint of the city- once you're up there you'll realize how big it is! You can play a game to find the
most relevant monuments, such as the Parthenon, the Olympian Zeus temple or the
Panathenaic stadium. You can go up on foot doing some exercise or taking the funicular for 7,50€ (round trip). From up there we saw one of the most amazing sunsets we have ever witnessed anywhere in the world.

The storm clouds and lightning bolts falling over the orange sky were quite a spectacle. So we recommend you to go up a while before sunset to see Athens from the heights by day and night. At the top there is a restaurant where you can dine with amazing views.

The Foundry Rooftop Garden

At the top of the incredible The Foundry Suites aparthotel in the center of Psyrri, you will find what is probably the most lush and enchanting setting to enjoy Athens from above.

Adorned with olive trees, colorful flowers, grass-covered tiles and vine-covered pergolas, the Roof Garden bar has the look and feel of an unspoiled Athenian backyard.

Surrounded by fantastic views over the Acropolis and the
city, here you can enjoy local and fresh flavors. The azoteaincludes wines from small Greek winemakers, beers from local microbreweries, refreshing juices and
craft cocktails. 

There are also homemade pizzas baked in a traditional wood-fired oven on the rooftop, and a picnic fountain well suited to the setting.

For a natural and relaxing rooftop experience at
Atenas, you must try the Roof Garden at The Foundry Suites.
