VRILISSIA
Vrilissia is a suburban municipality of the North Athens regional unit, in the Attica region. It is located in the Athens basin, at the south-western foot of the Penteli Mountain. At the 2011 census, the municipality had 30,741 residents.
HISTORY In antiquity the area of Vrilissia formed part of the deme of Phlya, which covered the land spanning from Psychiko to Agia Paraskevi and mainly centered on what is now known as the Municipality of Chalandri. It is also home to a large commercial district with a number of banks and several malls within its territory. |
Two popular centres of activity are the two main squares, "Plateia Iroon" or Iroon Square and "Plateia Analipseos" or Analipseos Square, recently renovated and hosting several small coffee shops. Vrilissia has exceptionally wide, straight roads, in stark contrast to those typically found in Athens, and is also relatively green, with most houses/apartment blocks extending to gardens.
Vrilissia has a popular men's handball team, competing in the A1 league. |
