A breath away from Acropolis is Metaxourgeio, the home of legendary Greek Artistics. Taken its name from the old Silk(metaxi in Greek) Factory, Metaxourgeio is an urban place full of galleries, restaurants, bars and theatres. It is also considered to be one of the fastest upgrading neighbors in Athens. The area is acquiring a reputation as an artistic and fashionable neighborhood due to the opening of many art galleries, museums, and trendy restaurants and cafes. Moreover, local efforts to beautify and invigorate the neighborhood have reinforced a budding sense of community and artistic expression. Metaxourgeio is the new ‘’in’’ place in town, attracting new business and investments in all business fields including hospitality, food and beverage, art and many more. The very convenient location as a cross path between the city center and the Athens suburbs is also an attracting pole to people and businessmen who want to avoid the usual and explore the modern and alternative.
