National Garden, Athens

Fantastic place to take a walk. Plenty of trees, flowers and different animals. You can see turtles, parrots, goats, fish... Olive bushes and palms. Charming and quite place to go with a family or alone with your favourite book. Also a place to eat and drink something. My option to relax after a stressful week, practically in the strict city center.

Very nice gardens in the middle of Athens. They are large and well maintained. Other major cities have nice parks as well, but this is a great garden/park to get away from the hustle of Athens. The turtles were a nice surprise for the kids. And the wonderful group of young ladies, walking through the park, singing Xmas songs was a really nice surprise. Overall, a good place for a run/walk and to enjoy the outdoors

It's beautiful. The orange trees smell lovely, the trees are majestic and look good and it's a great place for a walk or to hang out. But there is one MAJOR thing that bothers me. Why do they need to hold animals in captivity in the park. These animals live under bad conditions, e.g they cut of the goose wings so it won't fly away. Horrible! I wish the city off Athen would shut this little zoo in there down. Fun information for the end: You can eat the oranges, but they are very sour and more taste like grapefruit. I tested that for you ;)

Only if it were more taken care of. Apart from that it is a place that you should not miss to visit every month at least. Gives the sense of nature, green park which is completely absent from the the rest of Athens.

An island of nature inside the city. Great for kids. There are at least 2 cafes , a few lakes and parts with animals. A lot of different tree species. Close to the Presidential palace and Kallimarmaron stadium and the parliament. Overall great
