Adjacent to Pagrati, an upcoming neighborhood with a vibrant nightlife, Kaisariani is surrounded by numerous restaurants, cafes and bars. The area’s trademark is Skopeftirio Grove, a 14-acre urban park painted with cobblestoned alleys, pine trees, firs and cypresses, ideal for a relaxing walk or an outdoor picnic. A shooting range during World War II, the area was transformed into a park with playgrounds, an open-air cinema and a cozy cafe in 1984. A memorial built in honor of the victims of the German occupation stands in the heart of the park bearing testimony to the place’s historical significance.
