It’s a wonderful area for leisurely walks, with plenty of cafes, restaurants, and small shops selling traditional Greek products and handmade souvenirs. Plaka's historical ambiance and its proximity to major archaeological sites make it a must-visit for anyone wanting to experience the heart of old Athens.
