About Us

Our Story

Plaka for us is a travel in time.
Everything started in 2012, with the creation of a Facebook page about Plaka, the old Town of Athens.


After that, when some visitors started sending photos and text about Plaka and making questions, we said, that's it!

Visit Plaka was born
We started the website that you are here today. We wrote all the texts from the scratch, trying to reveal Athens, Attica and Plaka history.

During that journey, we also decided to make our map, that became a reality in 2023. We mapped 50 important spots around Acropolis, that we later published our book, 50 Shades of Athens.

In 2024, the second book was born about Athens, Walking Art wonders. We still have more plans to reveal about Plaka history, what to do, feel and experience.

Hope you find our work as fascinating as we find it during our walk around Kydathineon, Adrianou, Pandrosou and all Athens' monuments, till Thisio area.
We want always to discover more, so find us at social media or drop us an email for ideas and questions.

Plaka for us is Travel in Time — Mind out of Space — Human and Aesthetics
