    An amazing park for a run, a walk, reading a book, a coffee, anything!!! Legitimately my favourite place in all of Athens!

    The park was designed in 1934 and its purpose was to honour the heroes of the Greek revolution of 1821, 21 of whom are depicted in marble busts standing in the park. The initial plan included the construction of a "Pantheon" for the revolutionaries and also a major Christian Temple, dedicated to the Greek Independence.

    Beautiful park, safe and clean! You can find people with kids having a picnic, people walking their dogs, events now and then and great for jogging, walking or riding bikes! It also has children play ground and a cinema in the summer as seen in the pics! A favorite place

    A very large area park with many paths🚶‍♀️ both paved and rustic. There are many different sections. There is also a cathedral. There is a huge area of booths but I think is only open on the weekend. There are statues and monuments. There is a very large restaurant. And there are music 🎶 events

    This park has kind of bad fame but I visited it first time few days ago for an Exhibition "You and AI" organized by Onassis Stegi Cultural Center and I was amazed.I don't think there could be better place for this event. After sunset it was really nice place to walk and relax. Im not sure if I love the place because of the exhibition mostly but still appreciate a really big park in the middle of the concrete city.

    We visited to see the interactive art show at the park. Strong showing of digital and video art. It was packed until they kicked everyone out at 10:30.

    Although i grew up in Athens, I had more than fifteen years to come in this park. And the reason? It was abandoned, dirty and full of dopers. It was one of the most seamy parks in town. But after my last visit i am very happy because nothing is the same. The park is clean with a lot of plants and trees, there are new pedestrian areas, police cycling or driving inside the park, a lot of people are running without fear and many are sitting on benches and enjoying the sun. Some disadvantages i noticed are: --a lot of dog poop around the park( doesn't somebody knows that in 2019 we pick them up in a plastic bag?) --many dogs free without leash and muzzle --there are lot of fountains without water --there isn't public wc( homeless people around the area relieve themselves in the park). --no parking available( it's better to use the public transport) It's great happiness to see this park alive again. Let's keep it clean!

    Maybe it was because of the heavy rains but when I visited Athens, this park was full of garbage, unfinished pavements and destructed clay roads.

    This park is for me a hidden Gem in Athen. Nice people, clean, safe. And there is a juicebar in the middle of it. Stay patient! Theyre slow🤣 But the freshly squezed juice you have in the park is yummy as fuuuc

    It’s cleaned up nice recently, and has become a lot less sketchy than it used to be. You get some interesting happenings once in a while, like art exhibitions and concerts. Nothing special compared to its European counterparts, unsafe after hours.

  • 2/5 Darryl M. 4 years ago on Google
    This once was a beautiful park in the center but over time it has become more run down and not safe at night to be in as homeless and drug addicts can be there. During the day it makes for a quick walk and view the church found with in it.

    Nice park to have a walk in the evening. We were here at begining of June, the park was full of beautiful tree with flowers. It is clean (could be cleaner), not crowded. Worth to visit if you are in the area.

    Nice park with spacious pathways to walk on. I expected more monuments, though; it feels rather empty. Great place to read in the summer, I imagine.

  • 5/5 Daniel �. 7 months ago on Google • 73 reviews
    Large and welcoming park, which especially during summer serves as an oasis of cool air and humidity. Often there are markets on different occasions which offer food or other items.

  • 5/5 Antonis Z. 7 months ago on Google • 42 reviews
    Best and only park in Athens. The good thing is that is near the biggest and beautiful squares full of trees also that is Fokionos Negri. So someone can relax inside park and after can go to fokionos that is full of coffee shops and restaurants.

  • 4/5 S D. 6 months ago on Google • 38 reviews
    Very nice and big park. A little too dark after 7pm in places, but still loads of people around until late evening, so pretty safe. Some upgrading and cleansing needed and some creepy guys hanging around always trying to bother women (happens everywhere here too), but not dangerous. Edit, not even main parts are safe as a solo female just trying to walk your dog. Lots of people around at 9pm main "roads", but still had a guy try to assault me on a dark spot of it, stay safe everyone and always have protection on you in this city! 💔 Be loud so everyone hear you and fight back

    It’s a very nice park to go and relax or take your dog/kids. I went with my bike and it was amazing

    Weirdly I'd never visited this park until recently. It's a very nice area for a walk (at least during the day)

  • 5/5 Rejie C. 2 years ago on Google

  • 3/5 Christos P. 2 years ago on Google
    Interesting place ,with statues and beautiful floral but no so beautiful like National Garden.

  • 5/5 Nick C. 10 months ago on Google
    One of my favorite parks! It isn’t the cleanest or breath taking, but has a lot of positives to it. I love how it has a lot of species of trees and plants and gives a description on many of them along the path. There are also a lot of cool statues. The people mentioning homeless people I guess just aren’t used to cities… because that’s what any free park will have.

  • 4/5 Nur Al H. 2 years ago on Google
    City centre of Athens, rarely one that volume of park in full offerings of the greens and mature is not as common in European capital. A every day Scape for hundreds to take that break of city routine. It's must visit as Αθήνα and Μέγας Αλέξανδρε will be at your welcoming.

  • 5/5 Gina R. 2 years ago on Google
    keep it clean! you can find places to read, playground for youger children, it has 2 little churches, a walkin path with small statues. It very nice for walking

  • 5/5 Florian F. 2 years ago on Google
    Since this is one of the few green spaces in Athens it's a clear 5*. There is not a lot of competition, so even though I wouldn't say it's a great park there are not that many others that bring you far away from the street to have some peace and quiet!

  • 5/5 Anthony M. 1 year ago on Google
    Get into nature in the middle of Athens. Take your dog for a walk, let your kids ride their bikes or play footy. At the moment in June there is a digital Art exhibition in the park, which is great. A few weirdos walking around but they're harmless.

  • 4/5 Filea J. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the most beautiful Park in Athens, far from thé crowds of touristes.

  • 1/5 Hermes P. 2 years ago on Google
    The only park in Athens closes at 22:30 pm in Summer. That is too early! Its summer! The security drives around in cars , yes cars! In a small park. Lifting dust , making noise , pollution! We go to the park to escape cars . Why cant your security walk, like they do in every other city in the worlds. We also saw 5 police bikes drive through the park the other day, its turning into omonoia square. Sad

  • 2/5 Al-Layth a. 1 year ago on Google
    A very quiet place. I sat alone and browsed on the phone. I was there in the morning. I went near it to my embassy and I sat and waited for the time to come. A person can relax a little and eat a cupcake or drink your coffee. A good place to wait. Yes, of course I wanted to go there and all thanks to those who contributed to this place

  • 5/5 Jehad A. 1 year ago on Google
    Thank you to the staff at MyHabit Restaurant for the good meeting, service and quality of food. You have a highly skilled food chef. Indeed, your Greek coffee has a distinct taste. The name fits you. What comes once becomes a daily habit for him afterwards. I write these words while I'm sitting on the plane now before take off. I feel like I will go back to your beautiful island again just to have a greek coffee

  • 5/5 Eleni V. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolute gem just north of central Athens. I heard it used to be "sketchy" but no more. Full of people, dogs, and birds enjoying this huge park. I love to jog there, as do others.

  • 4/5 JME 1 year ago on Google
    It is a good place for a walk with your dogs and friends, it seems clean and safe. There is always security driving around and sometimes even events. Great pleace to relax for a bit.

  • 4/5 中村Jushiro 10 months ago on Google
    Is another pretty nice park havent visit it yet with my dog or late hours but when they had some small stores in it was nice to buy a frozen drink a while walking in Athens. Pretty refreshing also. (4* for the late hours might be dangerous of walking it)

  • 5/5 Ricardo S. 10 months ago on Google
    A good place to go for a fresh air walk on a well kept park. It's big, it's clean and it's pleasant place to be. Would benefit with some more little kiosks to get water or coffee while we are on our walking.

    Απογοήτευση για την εγκατάλειψη και την έντονη παραβατικότητα που έχει ενσκήψει τα τελευταία χρόνια. Η δυσωδία για όποιον περπατά στο πεζοδρόμιο της Λεωφόρου Αλεξάνδρας είναι ανυπόφορη. Κρίμα, θυμάμαι πριν από μερικές δεκαετίες ήταν χώρος αναψυχής και το στολίδι της περιοχής.

  • 5/5 Manos h. 4 years ago on Google
    A park like no other. Strange, beautiful and calm. Noise of the city fades away as you walk to the centre. Feels more like the centre of a village, where elders play boardgame and the rest pass by. Writers, poets, composers I've seen walking or resting on a bench. A favourite Park.

  • 5/5 Michael M. 4 years ago on Google
    It's clean and safe. That's it. See it yourself. Its not the prettiest park but any park that is safe is worth visiting once in a while, especially when it's so big and so rich in history. I'll upload photos on my next visit, soon.

    A beautiful park just off the city centre, located closest to Victoria Square station of the train. It has a myriad of paths perfect for exploring all the different areas of the park. It is great for exercise, walking your pets, or even roller skating and skateboarding. There is at least one café in the center of the park for refreshments. Great for all ages.
