Traveler reviews
Shamantronics
★★★★★3 years agoGreat park-of-the-people in Exarchia, Athens. Early in may 2009 a parking lot was reclaimed by the inhabitants of the neighbourhood. They've build a park there for everyone to enjoy. My wife and I donated an abandoned Ficus Tree that has since grown uit to a full size Tree. The whole thing, the park, activities, both for kids and for grown-ups, is maintained with passion by the inhabitants of the neighbourhood. A unique place, Exarchia Athens

★★★★★4 years agoAn amazing alternative park which was planned to be a parking but during the revolt is 2008 was occupied and turned into a small park, desperately needed in the heart of Athens. Due to the efforts is fine amazing people and collectives, it is turned into a child friendly park with installations for kids and frequent activities
