Now walking evening stroll.
Walking through Athens in the evening delightful. Dropping heat of the day, the air fragrant scents of thousands of flowers. There is one "but".
Athens - an international city where the real Greeks are around 50%. The rest of the motley composition. There is a very unpleasant person, so it is best not to walk at night with money and valuables, especially closer to the center.
Omonia generally better to get round. Greeks prefer to go in the evening from the central regions somewhere in the area of Glyfada, or Koridalo or even out of town.
Well, basically a walk in the wonderful Greece. Self-respecting establishments often organize performances by singers and musicians, as posted posters. They are always the audience dancing.
