The Gazi neighbourhood

The place to party

This neighbourhood is right in the middle of Athens and is a kind of summary of the city. Just next to the ruins of the Kerameikos, this neighbourhood of maze-like streets has one of the best atmospheres in Athens. An abandoned gas factory with a huge red chimney acts as the heart of the neighbourhood. All basically arranged around this central point, countless bars, restaurants, art galleries, theatres and concert halls welcome a mixture of locals and tourists. After dark, the neighbourhood gets even more exciting and a lot busier. Every night the streets are packed with a young crowd, especially at weekends and in the summer. The Gazi neighbourhood has become the most modern area of the most classical city in the world. Welcome to Gazi!
