These are a few photographs that I took on a long walk toward the area of Thiseio in downtown Athens, Greece. Athens is a great city for those who love ‘urbex photography‘ as the city has tons of abandoned buildings. Some are in the process of being renovated and others homes have occupants, but they are very old and are not in the greatest condition.





Great photos! Tell me are the old apartment blocks on Alexandras Avenue with the Civil War bullet holes still there?
Thanks! I didn’t see any old buildings be torn down. As for the bullets I wish I had paid more attention as I would have taken a photo of the holes!!
Get down there and take pictures while you can as their fater is under threat. Here’s an article from 3 days ago:

Oh you mean those buildings. I’ve heard of them. I think that they were only meant to be temporary housing for the refugees from Asia Minor and that’s why they want to tear them down. Great article, I’ll try to make it down there.
