Adrianou Street, running North to South from Thesseion towards Hadrian's Arch, is the largest and most central street in Plaka and divides it into two areas: the upper - Ano Plaka located right under the Acropolis and the lower - Kato Plaka situated between Syntagma and Monastiraki. Adrianou is the oldest commercial street in Athens still in continuous use with exactly the same layout, direction and usage since antiquity. ​As in the other main streets in Plaka, you will find shops selling traditional products, souvenirs, folk art and handicrafts, etc. There are, however, some shops offering an exceptional quality of products, worth discovering.

The Theatre of Dionysus Eleuthereus is a major theatre in Athens, built at the foot of the Athenian Acropolis. Dedicated to Dionysus, the god of plays and wine, the theatre could seat as many as 17,000 people with excellent acoustics, making it an ideal location for ancient Athens biggest theatrical celebration, the Dionysia. It was the first stone theatre ever built, cut into the southern cliff face of the Acropolis and supposedly birthplace of Greek tragedy. The remains of a restored and redesigned Roman version can still be seen at the site today. It is sometimes confused with the later, smaller, and better-preserved Odeon of Herodes Atticus, located nearby on the southwest slope of the Acropolis. The site was used as a theatre since the sixth century BC. The existing structure dates back to the fourth century BC but had many other later remodellings. (By Wikipedia)
