An ancient historical landmark at the centre of Athens, in Kolonaki city. The park is pretty nice too, with playground, nice for familes and kids, a clean and safe place.

An ancient cistern that was constructed in 140 AD by Hadrianos emperor. It was abandoned and was rediscovered in 1870. It is very well preserved and you can see it through three big windows. It was part of the water system of Athens. There is no entrance fee.
Fascinating, can be viewed around the clock, situated in a must-visit historical neighborhood, just to be clear, you cant enter inside, you look inside through plexiglass (for the sake of preservation)
The Adrianus water system to ancient times its a great engineering work to provide city with water apart from local water wells that existed in all Attica.The attached photos in this site are taken in the area of Halandri are sealed from the Water Company EYDAP and in my today passage along those ancient Wells that underground feed still now the Adrianus Cistern in Kolonaki were opened for inspection as I was told from local people.It's amazing the way they worked two thousand years and more to design buIlt and provide pure water to Athens.
Very good
Κομμάτι του αδριανειου υδραγωγείου. Θα μπορούσε να ήταν καλύτερα διατηρημένο και να ήταν επίσκεψη και η υπόγεια δεξαμενή.
Starożytny rezerwuar wybudowany za czasów panowania Hadriana. Pomimo iż jest nieużywany od bardzo dawna, to na ścianach wciąż widać ślady po poziomie wody, jaki utrzymywał się tutaj w czasach jego funkcjonowania. Niestety nie można zwiedzać go w środku (ogromna szkoda). Widok z zewnątrz przypomina mi natomiast krajobraz kanałów z jakiejś komputerowej gry RPG.
Citerne bien conservée située sur une petite place isolée aux pieds du mont Lycabette. Visite libre, sur place vous pourrez voir la citerne au travers d’immense baies vitrées. Un bel endroit à visiter en descendant ou en montant.
