At the same time, commercial development took place due to the growth of its population towards the South districts of Athens and it consequently became one of the regions with the highest prices per square meter.
It offers grand beaches and is a preferred destination for swimming, particularly the Edem area, which is to be found next to the Marina of Alimos. A number of scenic neoclassical mansions, fine examples of the 19th century architecture, have remained along the coast line of Palaio Faliro.

Glyfada is identified as the capital of the southern suburbs and marked as the “Riviera of the East” of Attica.
In ancient times, this location was the municipality of Aixonis, familiar for the Aixoniki Trigli, a mullet that was fished in its waters. Glyfada was also one of the most opulent areas of Athens, due to its agricultural harvest.
The first modern houses were built in 1920, when tourist exploitation of the beautiful beaches was seen for the very first time and, shortly thereafter, Glyfada developed into a modern bath resort. The area received its name from a number of wells which were present at the time and had brackish water.
In common with the districts of Voula and Vouliagmeni, Glyfada constituted the official establishment of “bains mixtes” of Athens at that time. It is also worth mentioning that Glyfada became the originator for fast food and night clubs because of the American Base which existed for many years in this region.
Today it is considered a cosmopolitan neighborhood, with nice houses by the sea. The large freeway Vouliagmenis Avenue separates the area into Ano (Upper) Glyfada and Kato (Lower) Glyfada.

Piraeus
Piraeus is one of the largest and vital municipalities of the country. The name comes from the word “beyond” in the sense of distant or opposite. Since ancient times, this district has been the major seaport of Athens due to its three large ports. The harbor city had its peak during ancient times but gradually degenerated during Roman times up to the Byzantine, Frankish and Ottoman periods and, as a consequence, became an almost insignificant port.
However, after the establishment of the Modern Greek State and the city of Athens officially becoming the capital of Greece, its growth and development was very impressive.
In 1834 the architects Kleanthis and Shaubert designed the city of Piraeus. The traditional urban outline and architectural identity of the town are still evident in the center and several buildings have been preserved from the mid 1990’s onwards.
Today, it is a major industrial and commercial center, covering most needs and requirements of the entire country and is considered the most historical and influential focal point of Greece, in conjunction with Athens. Piraeus constantly tries to combine the everyday commerce activities of a large port with the traditional urban way of life. There is a great variety and diversity to be seen throughout the regions, it is a large municipality that meets urban neighborhoods with modern apartments, solely business oriented areas but also districts that are rather underdeveloped due to low economic resources of its residents.
Particularity: The architectural development of the historical center of Piraeus is of great interest. All groups of buildings, residencies, the impressive mansions, shops, office buildings, manufacturers, factories and hotels, as well as the public buildings of the city, demonstrate a variety of structural resolutions.
Transportation: Piraeus is served by 51 bus lines, 3 trolley lines, the train (starting point and terminal), the Metro, the suburban railway and the national KTEL bus line.
Nature: The Terpsitheas Square and the area surrounding the Peace and Friendship Stadium.

Culture/Entertainment: Cinemas, theaters, galleries, restaurants, cafés, bars, clubs, music venues, rooms of mystery.

Prior to that, it was referred to as an uninhabitable area, arid and dry with rustic character and until 1830 constituted the pasture owned by the Turk Pasha Hassan (Hassani Tsifliki) which extended to Voula.
The former name of this municipality was Loimiko, due to the quarantine hospice that existed there, the current name “Greek” was established in the early 20th century and was selected as a better sounding name. The area hosted the main national airport of Athens from 1938 until 2001.

Κηφισιά
Το όνομά της Κηφισιάς προέρχεται από τον Κηφισό ποταμό, είναι αρχαιότατο, ήταν μια από τις αρχαίες 12 πόλεις της Αττικής.
Απλώνεται ανάμεσα στο όρος Πεντέλη και στην Πάρνηθα και είναι ουσιαστικά μία πευκόφυτη πεδιάδα.
Η Κηφισιά είναι η επονομαζόμενη «πρωτεύουσα» των βορείων προαστίων. Με τους επιβλητικούς πυργίσκους, τα πάλαι ποτέ πολυτελή ξενοδοχεία που σήμερα στεγάζουν είτε δημόσιες υπηρεσίες, είτε έχουν πουληθεί και χρησιμοποιούνται ως επαγγελματικοί χώροι, τις πολλές και ωραίες μονοκατοικίες, την άρτια ρυμοτομία, την ιδιαίτερη αρχιτεκτονική των σπιτιών και των πολυτελών καταστημάτων, τη δημοφιλή εμπορική αγορά γύρω από την πλατεία Πλατάνου, ενδιαφέρουσες προτάσεις εστίασης και διασκέδασης, διαχρονικά στέκια, το γνωστό ΄Αλσος της, αδιαμφησβήτητα είναι μία από τις πιο ωραίες περιοχές της Αττικής.
Λόγω του υγιεινού κλίματος, του ωραίου περιβάλλοντος, των άφθονων νερών και της μικρής σχετικά απόστασής της από την Αθήνα, υπήρξε από την αρχαιότητα προνομιούχος τόπος και τόπος παραθερισμού πλουσίων και ευγενών. Επίσης τον 19ο ως τις αρχές του 20ου αιώνα, πολλοί Αθηναίοι την επέλεξαν για να γίνει τόπος των εξοχικών τους κατοικιών.
Η περιοχή καλύπτεται από ένα από τα καλύτερα δίκτυα ποδηλατοδρόμων στην Αθήνα και μπορεί να σας δώσει την ευκαιρία για μία ωραία βόλτα, καθώς επίσης το εμπορικό της κέντρο διαθέτει και ένα εκτενές δίκτυο πεζοδρόμων.
Το κέντρο της πόλης εντοπίζεται στην καρδιά του δήμου επιδεικνύοντας μια πλούσια και πολυτελή αγορά, ενώ πέριξ τούτου εκτείνονται οι ήσυχοι συνοικισμοί, ορισμένοι από τους οποίους είναι η Νέα Κηφισιά, Κάτω Κηφισιά, το Κεφαλάρι, η Πολιτεία, ο Κοκκιναράς, το Στροφύλι και το γνωστό Κεφαλάρι.
Η πρόσβαση στην Κηφισιά μπορεί να γίνει είτε από την Εθνική Οδό, είτε από τη λεωφόρο Κηφισίας.
Ιδιαιτερότητα: Μία περιοχή που συνδυάζει την εξοχή με την πόλη. Πολυτελή καταστήματα δίπλα σε ωραίες κατοικίες με κήπους, ωραίους περίπατους και βόλτες με το ποδήλατο. Γνωστή για το ωραίο της κλίμα, που κάνει τους κατοίκους να αισθάνονται ότι ζουν εκτός πόλης. Στην Κηφισιά θα μπορούσε κανείς να πει ότι μπορεί να κάνει έναν ενδεικτικό «αρχιτεκτονικό περίπατο» για να θαυμάσει τα κτήρια της περιοχής που περνάει από τις οδούς Ραγκαβή, Πεσματζόγλου, Εμμανουήλ Μπενάκη και Παναγή Τσαλδάρη, που είναι γεμάτες πυργίσκους και παλιά Κηφισιώτικα σπίτια ή νεοκλασικά «πνιγμένα» στο πράσινο.
Πράσινο: Γενικά είναι μία «πράσινη» περιοχή. Εκτός από το άλσος στο κέντρο της, μπορεί κανείς απλώς να περπατήσει και να βρεθεί σε μικρά αλσύλλια, πάρκα ή ακόμα και σε ωραίες πευκόφυτες γειτονιές.
Συγκοινωνίες: Κομβικό σημείο στην προσέγγιση της Κηφισιάς με τα μέσα μαζικής μεταφοράς, είναι ο γνωστός τερματικός σταθμός του τρένου (ΗΣΑΠ). Επίσης υπάρχουν και διάφορες γραμμές λεωφορείων που έρχονται από όλο το λεκανοπέδιο.
Αγορά: Αγορά που καλύπτει όλες τις απαιτήσεις. Από τα απλά καθημερινά, απαραίτητα για κάθε σπίτι, μέχρι ρούχα, παπούτσια, αντικείμενα, βιβλία, παιχνίδια και ότι άλλο μπορεί να ζητήσει κανείς. Πολλοί γνωστοί σχεδιαστές έχουν καταστήματα στο εμπορικό της κέντρο.
Κομμωτήρια, γυμναστήρια, spa.
Επίσης διαθέτει γνωστά μεγάλα Super Market.
Μέσος όρος αγοράς/ενοικίασης: Σίγουρα η Κηφισιά δεν θεωρείται “φτηνή” περιοχή. Η γη πωλείται ακριβά και σε συνδυασμό με τους περιορισμούς στη δόμηση, καταφέρνει να μην είναι πυκνοκατοικημένη. Οι τιμές στην πώληση ακινήτου κυμαίνονται μεταξύ 1.200€/τ.μ.-16.000€/τ.μ. και για ενοικίαση 4€/τ.μ.-30€/τ.μ

HELLENIC PARLIAMENT
The Hellenic Parliament (Greek: “Parliament of the Hellenes”, transliterated Voulí ton Ellínon) is the parliament of Greece, located in the Old Royal Palace, overlooking Syntagma Square in Athens. The Parliament is the supreme democratic institution that represents the citizens through an elected body of Members of Parliament (MPs).
It is a unicameral legislature of 300 members, elected for a four-year term. During 1844–63 and 1927–35 the parliament was bicameral with an upper house, the Senate, and a lower house, the Chamber of Deputies, which retained the name Vouli.
Several important Greek statesmen have served as Speakers of the Hellenic Parliament.

THE CENTRAL MARKET
The Public Market Place of Athens has been in business nonstop since 1886. It consists of a fish market, vegetable market and a meat market extending along both sides of Athinas Street.
Also known as Varvakeios Agora, it is open every day, except Sunday, from early in the morning till late afternoon. In the meat market you will find historic shops which have been there since the 70s or before, with excellent, pure local meat, cut right in front of you. The same goes for the fish market, full of fresh fish arriving there in the early hours of the morning. In the adjacent alleys, a complex of small businesses is developing, with traditional Greek products and aromas that will overwhelm you.
