Top 15 Attractions and Activities in Peristeri, Greece
A northwestern suburb of Athens, Peristeri is Greece’s fourth-largest municipality. Historically, this area was once composed of open fields along the Sacred Way, an ancient procession route connecting Athens to Eleusis. During the Greco-Turkish War from 1919 to 1922, Peristeri was selected for refugee camps, which later evolved into a suburb after World War II. The suburb was integrated into the Athens Metro via Line 2 in the early 2000s.
