Property information

Location Tripodon street is considered as the oldest street of Athens. It is located in the same place as it was 25 centuries ago and has the same name since then. The Way of Glory The very precious story of Tripodon Street begins from the fact that it was, perhaps, the broadest street of ancient Athens (six meters wide) and the shortest one to go from the theater of Dionysus to the Agora. It was not done to serve the city's traffic, but to get the Athenians to watch the theatrical performances of Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides and Aristophanes. It was the street of Art, the Philosophers, the Theater, the Architecture, the Greek Thought. In this way the torch relaying took place in honor of the god Dionysus. "... From Prytania begins the road called Tripodes. They call it the place with temples so large that they are placed over bronze tripods and means to have memorable works ..." Pausanias, Attica And along this road were placed the bronze tripods (on impressive monuments) which were the prizes of the sponsors of the victorious theatrical and musical competitions held in Athens. All these sponsored monuments were dedicated to God Apollo.

Neighbourhood information

Plaka Neighborhood One of the oldest and most picturesque districts of Athens, Plaka lies below the Acropolis. Here ancient Roman structures, Byzantine churches and buildings from the Ottoman occupation intermingle with beautiful neoclassical manors and picturesque taverns, creating a unique, colourful mosaic of the city’s history. In the shadow of the Sacred Rock, the scenic Anafiotika neighbourhood adds a touch of the Aegean to the heart of Athens. Plaka, draws multitudes of visitors to its narrow, vehicle-free streets lined with traditional taverns, bars, museums and tourist shops. A stone’s throw from the Acropolis, the New Museum, Monastiraki and central Athens, Plaka is the perfect destination. Points of Interest Cobbled streets and neoclassical mansions, ancient sites and humble houses hidden behind fragrant jasmine bushes and vibrant bougainvilleas: the Plaka neighborhood in Athens is a destination in its own right. The oldest part of Athens hosts artisan shops, small taverns with delicious local food, amazing museums hidden behind unassuming buildings and more history, culture and architecture than anyone could take in in one go.
