Thats why I include them together, but the do have a very differen vibe, once you walk up the hill, Kefalari is more, relaxed and bar, restauranty., Kifissia with its shops is a bit, frenetic.
I'm sure you do your best. You vid is very interesting, even for the Ellines. But please do not do what the foreigners do and promote ancient sites as all Roman. E.g., the agora in Athens is not Roman as they like to inform, it was built by the Ellines and used by the Romans when they had enslaved Ellas. Thanks for listening. 😁
@@bentspoon1805 I am an amateur Hellenophile who happens to love Greece and is trying to present Greece in a factual (I hope) manner which represents what can be seen now and happened to create what is here now. I recently did a video walking tour for example of central Athens, and I clearly identify in the video the separate Greek and Roman Agoras, the time separation between them of approximately 400 to 500 years and the fact the Greek is larger and more significant for Athens. If we take Kifissia, it was of course Greek, but its historical classical zenith was about 100AD, during the reign of Hadrian when Herodicus Atticus built Villa Kifissia there. Kifissia then became a cultural retreat for the higher citizens to seek respite from the summer heat and was known as a bohemian village of great thinkers artists and Philosophers, Both Greek and Roman, now represented by the existence of Kifissia Plaka in modern Kifissia, as a result. Prior to that time, as with for example Patras, it was not really significant in Greek history, although of course they were originally Greek, and still are. Patras for example was a group of 4 villages called collectively Arai, and had no Acropolis. The Romans then arrived, the name became Pat-Arai, and a Roman costal city was born. I am not trying to belittle Greece or the Greek peoples, just make hopefully good accurate videos to the best of my ability.
@@bentspoon1805 None taken! I worry all the time I will make some big mistake with my facts, it does happen. I just love exploring fantastic Greece, and if you enjoy watching, then I am all the happier! I do appreciate the time you have taken to comment, and you are absolutely right, some of my pronunciations are terrible!

Pleasant videos to watch , nice seeing videos from someone who enjoys and knows about what they are filming.
Its a nice video on athens neighbourhood
Great video…. Well done
Thank you!
Ekali nearby is the poshest suburb.
Very glad to have discovered Kefalari and Kifissia and where else would you want to be on sunny December day. Delightful.
Can you recommend an area in Athens which is a bit more bohemian, but still a great area worth visiting?
Kifissia, Plaka, Plaka, Plaka. I hope you enjoy when you visit!
Kefalari is not anything different from Kifissia. It is just a square and the surrounding area within the municipality of Kifissia-Nea Erythrea-Ekali.

Pronounce places and names properly, and get your facts straight. They are not Roman they are Greek taken over by the Romans.
I do my best.
