Plaka stairs
Many people wonder where the famous Plaka Stairs are. They are really easily accessible, from Monastiraki metro, walk to the Old Agora Square and find Mnisikleous Street.
There are many cafes and restaurants there. Moreover, you can find cats at Plaka stairs, where many shops, abandoned houses at Anafiotika are, near tavernas and restaurants, Kydathineon, or near Kanellopoulos museum at Tholou street, where people feed them, but they walk everywhere around the area.
Plaka is the best place for Cafe, restaurant, art and Shopping.
Plaka Stairs & Plaka cats
At Mnisikleous street, a magnificent spot has been created by stairs, surrounded by restaurants and cafes, where you can enjoy many food or drink options. You should also consider that the spot is crowded, especially during summer, but also the fact that many cats are there, the famous Plaka cats!
Plaka cats
How pet friendly Athens can be? Well Plaka is far more cat friendly from any other neighbourhood of Athens!
In Plaka streets there are many pets around, which are being fed by locals or visitors. Normally they are friendly to people- unless if you try to harm them.
If you want to feed them, please do it but properly.
Feeding process
- Buy a sealed packet of cat food from a nearby mini market with a plastic bowl- and maybe water.
- Place the bowl carefully somewhere not to cause trouble to nearby businesses.
- Wait for the cats to finish their food and clean afterwards.
Please be responsible and be patient. Apart from the cats there are people that live from their shop/store/taverna at Plaka and they do not want the area to be dirty. Imagine if everyone who would like to feed the cats would not clean afterwards…
