Area information

Piraeus, the foremost among Mediterranean ports is also Greece's third largest city in terms of population and together with its suburbs, an industrial zone of particular importance for country's economy. Contemporary Piraeus is actually the same city with Athens as the boundaries between them are more of an administrative nature rather than real ones. Being the gate of continental Greece to it's hundreds of islands, it is also one of the most significant cities for shipping business around the world. A modern city with stressful financial activity, hosting great international events, like "Posidonia" and "Defendory" exhibitions, held in even years at the exhibition center of Piraeus Port Organization (O.L.P.). But Piraeus is not only business. Although many irreplaceable New-Classical public buildings were razed in late sixties, city's face is still attractive. Beside the Municipal Theatre, one can find nice little open-air restaurants and fountains at the shade of building' s New-Classical facades. On the narrow streets behind the main banks and ticket offices that rim the central ferry port, there are smart restaurants and shops. Many are also the samples of inspired New-Classical architecture adorning the city: the Electric Railway' s Terminal and Barclay's bank building by the port, the Municipal Gallery next to the Savoy Hotel, the N.A.T. manor and Bank's of Greece building at Gounari street and many others. At the north and east area of the electric railway terminal lays the lively market area, with an unusual and together seductive combination of activities: fishmongers, fruit and vegetable stalls together with chandlers and hardware stores. On Sunday mornings there is also a bustling flea market, which is centered on the antique shops around Hippodameian Square and also on the proximate streets by the railways.
