Hello and welcome to our channel! In this video we drive on (H)Iera Odos (Sacred Way), one of the most important avenues in Athens.

Iera Odos is the oldest road in Greece. For 2,500 years it remained the only national road, connecting Athens with Northern Greece, Epirus and the Peloponnese. The construction of the road with infrastructure and asphalt took place in 1927 and there was no other access to Athens until 1956.

In ancient times, the Sacred Way (Iera Odos) was the road that connected the city of Athens with Eleusis and the Thriasian Field, where the famous Eleusinian Mysteries were celebrated once a year.

Today it is one of the most important roads in Athens, used daily by thousands of drivers. It starts from the area of Kerameikos and ends in the area of Chaidari, at the junction with Athens Avenue.

Thank you for watching!!! ❤️
Enjoy the ride!!! 😊
