Benaki Museum & Kolonaki
Kolonaki is an adjective as much as a place: it's the suburb that most epitomises
the Athenian elite. Undeniably chic, it's where old money mixes with new.
Named after an obscure column in the central Plateia Kolonakiou (Kolonaki Sq),
Kolonaki stretches from Syntagma to the foothills of Lykavittos Hill, and is
home to popular cafes, restaurants, galleries, museums, boutiques and stylish
apartment blocks.
