[jpandyaraja]

@jadaswarklar no jack ass ...the money could have been better spent.......like

[jadaswarklar]

@jpandyaraja

haha stupid idiot.. i am sure you are not aware of the importance of this metro,

we should be lucky that you are no politician.. you would do even worse than the politicians nowadays

[ekkotyaiou]

Well, in most metro stations in Athens centre except this one, a "classy" style was not intended; exhibits on display and protected by glass are archealogical findings discovered on the site during excavation stage! That's the main reason why Salonica's metro construction is taking too long: archaelogists are too busy with all the findings being discovered!

[ekkotyaiou]

The statues shown at the beginning and the frieze sculptures in the platforms area are actually replicas of the original Parthenon sculptures most of whom are kept in the British Museum.

The woman shown on a giant post in one platform is Melina Mercouri, Culture Minister in the 80's and 90's that asked for the return of these sculptures.

@ekkotyaiou Not just kept. Stolen from Thomas Bruce 200 years ago.

That craphole some of us we call it home......!!!! Just saying......Athens isnt a well defined city like Barcelona or Rome...but it has its secrets well known only to the people who live here...unfortunatelly not vissiting. Athens is not a lie what you see is what you get.....thats why i like it....it is raw but at the same moment so amazing soft!!!!!

[kungpaobenji27]

Nice station but you walk into a craphole upstairs that is Athens, haha. I still loved the city though.

[oldgordo61]

Very pretty subway station. Very much like the metro in Montreal.

[eurodance89]

What a nice station!

[indiavideo]

Lovely station. Ancient and modern Greece all in one station. I especially like floor tiles. Thanks for the video!

[louisaAngel]

I've been there yesterday !! Athens is fantastic, but to bad it was raining :(

[nixter888]

ARE YOU DREAMING!!!You watch the Greek video and you dream about Portugal?..That;s fanny!

[62anuradha]

Very pretty- the only difference between this and the metros in Singapore are the museum artifacts- makes it look very classy. Now you need to come here and film ours :)

[Cuosht86]

that's in athens, greece.

[SonSter89]

You don't find this kind of "museum-stations" in Holland.. really beautiful!!!

[JIMWRCI]

so u can visit us .. our country is all over like that ..

[imagestic]

@JIMWRCI No it isn't

[louisaAngel]

No!! in Holland we re paying for everything...nothing is for free...maybe in the future we will also pay for air

[avcomth]

There's a station with the cross section of someone's grave that is on display inside the glass windows. I saw that when I went to the Syntagma Square station.

[pexlivanos1980]

forse la piu bella metropolitana d europa.

[jupiter34]

a very friendly walk

[arisgreece26]

this has happened to me before!i was walking one night in the station with a cup of ice cream, and a guy stoped me and said: Sir, it would be better if you do not open the cup and eat the ice-cream in the station please!haha...that's nice though, we gotta keep it clean!

[Armos4lifee13]

Looks like the National Museum of Athens!!

Very nice

[satothequeen]

Very, very nice and clean:)

[jordimax65]

its so beautiful...

[vlakamalaka93]

hey, putsa. athens underwent a massive movement to plant many trees on kronos hill and other places to improve air quality in this beutiful, rich, amazing, historic, nice city. and if you take away the artifacts you are left with a newish, clen, and lovely subway terminal so just do us all a favor and fuck off, malaka

[GaiusDiocletian]

'Athens underwent a massive movement...'??? shouldnt that rather be 'with massive EU subsidies Athens underwent a movement...right?

know you fuck off you EU subsidy net receiving roro-ferry deckhand.

[mpleportals]

As if Italy didn't get any subsidies at all! You are being rediculous now since you see your country falling. Post elsewhere

[Thessalonik1]

reading comprehension is essential ya douchebag.

he claimed the metro system of athens was the cleanest and most effective (which is if youve been to barca or roma) athens city on the otherhand is indeed dirty, right on par with rome !

now walk away, troll.

[GaiusDiocletian]

If you tap me on the shoulder after two weeks then please exert the common decency to address the critique in a civilised way something my tour guide in Athens kept going on about how much it is (or used to be according to my observations)a part of your heritage anyway you got a lot of stuff to say except on the design aspects of this underground system have to take it we are in agreement on this one then, right ?kalispera

[isrubuntu256]

athens has the best and cleanest metro that i have ever used. greeks can be proud of it and i wish they would show their pride by not scratching the train windows

[PinkFlowerx33]
