Monetary Museum Garden

The Monetary Museum is in Panepistimiou str a few metres form Syntagma metro station.
A beautiful old building designed by architect Ernst Ziller, that used to be Heinrich Schliemann'shome, named Iliou Melathron (=palace of Ilion).

This is the view while entering the garden

and this is the way Panepistimiou str
is (not!) seen from the garden.

There is a cute, quiet coffee shop in the garden behind the building, where you can have some time of peace and rest, away from the noise and the sun!

green in the city

Photo taken from a coffee shop in Panormou street.
Housed in a still-not-become-building piece of land,
in one of the most full of traffic streets,
in the center of the city.

Such a joy to discover pictures from our childhood
in today!

There are many such, unexpected,
forgotten (to be build!) pieces of land, in Athens.
In spring, they flower as expected!
