The Onasis Cultural Centre on Syngrou Avenue opened a year ago so it was a first for us
We went there to see the Robert Mapplethorpe exhibition
I always wondered what the inside of the building would feel like given all those slats but the effect is quite nice and soothing, cocoon-like
The grand staircase
and a closer look
The building is five storey high. We were looking forward to having lunch at the rooftop restaurant with views of the Acropolis and Lykavetus but apparently it is not open yet
Is this really gold leaf, I wonder - can it possibly be used on such a grand scale?
the bar
and another look at the impressive ceiling.
