A natural extension of Filopappou hill, something between a park and an archaeological site. This is where the ancient Athenians assembled, argued, and voted. A lot of history, but no ropes, restricted access, or entrance fees. You can climb and sit on the same rocks and enjoy the view of Acropolis.
