Μarble streets, restaurants, and historic monuments; in modern history, Plaka has hosted, among others, the revered Lord Byron on Tripodon Street, the oldest street in use in the world.
In addition, Plaka was a centre of philosophical courses with ancient philosophers and democratic ideological debates among the locals.
Tripodon Street is only a few minutes away from the famous Lysicrates monument, which dates back to 335-334 BC and is located in a leafy square. The dramatic theatre flourished in the ancient theatre of Dionysus as well as in the slightly more famous Odeon of Herodes Atticus, or Herodeion as it is more widely known, which is located a short distance from Tripodon Street, about a 10-minute walk away, and which is still used as a concert and theatre venue today.
At the Herodeion, you can enjoy many performances throughout the year. As you walk around the Acropolis hill, this ancient world and culture, hovering right under your nose, is waiting for you to get a whiff and imagine what the area was once like.

The Prosperty
In a constantly evolving sector such as real estate, Prosperty and its co-founder, Antonis Markopoulos, are shaping the future of real estate digitally, with the help of technology and innovative tools.
For the first time, owners can list their property for sale or rent on the platform in a quick and simple way, while upgrading it in the best possible way. At the same time, prospective buyers and tenants not only enjoy a complete digital experience of browsing any property they wish, from anywhere in the world, but also have the ability to digitally book a visit, while having access to the property’s certified data and documents.
Moreover, for the more ” savvy “, Prosperty will digitally offer the whole process of signing a contract or lease, making the final experience easier, more understandable and certainly transparent, since one will be able to follow in real time where the process is.
Prosperty, currently having a remarkable and high quality portfolio of over 1,500 properties, adding approximately 300 new properties every month and having access to investment opportunities through its partnerships with major institutional property owners, offers a unique property coverage experience through high resolution images, 360ᵒ virtual tours of the property’s interior and impressive drone videos of the surrounding area.
Furthermore, it gives the opportunity to every interested party to check the price of the property of interest by contacting its owner, thus saving time from unnecessary visits to properties that do not interest the investors or are priced much higher than their budget.
Ultimately, having all property’s documents, Prosperty along with its trusted partners (Legal, Technical & Notary offices) can run the whole process ensuring almost contactless sale and purchase procedures. The process is completed up to four times faster than the current purchasing procedure.
The experience of leasing and renting for medium and long-term periods becomes entirely digitalised, at zero cost to the property owner and 50% lower cost to the tenant for the first time.
