Nostalgic pictures from Athens of the last century

Athens is the capital and largest city of Greece. Athens dominates the Attica region and is one of the world's oldest cities, with its recorded history spanning over 3,400 years.

The photos of Athens before the madness of reconstruction, which changed the character of the city, evoke nostalgia.

Omonia Square was once a place of coolness in the city center, with a large artificial lake with a fountain and not full of high-rise residential buildings.

See the photos below of a past long forgotten:
