Kolonaki/Lykavittos Hill
This hill juts a steep 984 feet (300m) right up from the centre
of the city, and is a great vantage point from which to take in the
scope of Athens. The St. George chapel and Lykavittos Theatre perch
atop this hill, which can be reached by car, cable car or a healthy
hike! The cable car departs every 30 minutes, from the corners of
Aristippou and Ploutarchou Streets in Kolonaki.
Opening time: The funicular runs Friday to Wednesday 8.45am to midnight, and Thursday 10.30am to midnight
