Cine Paris

"In the early 1920s, a hairdresser who used to live in Paris opened Ciné Paris, Greece’s first outdoor cinema. Ever since, open-air cinemas have been a staple of summer life in Greece. Ciné Paris closed down after 40 years of operation and reopened in 1986 to become locals’ favorite summer haunt. Located in the neighborhood of Plaka, the rooftop garden of Ciné Paris offers stunning night views of the Acropolis.All non-Greek speaking movies are shown in their original version with Greek subtitles. The cinema is open from May to October, and the usual screening time is at 9:00 PM. Seats aren’t numbered, so arrive at least 15 minutes earlier to find a good spot. There’s an intermission after the first half of the movie to grab one more beer or snacks from the concession. Remember to have your mosquito repellent on hand and maybe a light jacket to protect you from the breeze. Cinephiles shouldn’t miss the opportunity to browse through vintage movie posters in the shop by the entrance." - MATADOR_NETWORK
