Can you think of a better way to overcome the Sundays blues than attending a concert at an ancient theatre? Walk on Dionysiou Areopagitou, the main pedestrian street in the Makriyanni district, and find your way to the ODEON OF HERODUS ATTICUS. The feeling of a night concert under Acropolis Sacred Rock overlooking the illuminated Parthenon is truly mesmerizing.

Entertainment & Activities
If you feel like watching a movie, you should make a stop at the oldest OPEN-AIR THEATER in Athens (1935), also declared by CNN as the best summer cinema in the world. Situated at the foothill of Acropolis with an amazing view of Parthenon, it became famous thanks to its fairly cheap ticket and magical scenery. Don’t forget to ask the owners for some homemade sour cherry juice!
