Kifisia is one of the most expensive northern suburbs of Athens as it thrives with vividness and ''colourful'' people. In general, Greece does not have a particularly strong gay acceptance but it is a well known LGBT destination given the queer history that existed during the ancient times. Men those years favoured having same-sex relationships. For instance, the charismatic Alexander the Great was known for having a relationship beyond friendship with his friend Hephaestion. Nevertheless a discreet behaviour is needed or you may attract unwanted attention.
Athens is not known for being the most beautiful town, but its packed with historic sites and a vibrant gay life for every taste. Particularly in Kifisia you may find some gay-friendly places like the Django Bar, the Escoba Bar and HYDE. Each of them offers an amazingly big variety of drinks, food and a totally different vibe. Rejuvenating cocktails, stylish design, polite service and an easy-going atmosphere.
