Thission is the area around the Temple of Hephaestus. On the one side you can go to Monastiraki and the Agora of Athens but if you go up the hill you can stroll on a pedestrian route along Apostolou Pavlou. Both walks are very enjoyable. In summers we usually go to the open summer cinema called Thission which is unique in Athens, but in winter we usually walk up to one cafe of the so many in the area.
You can read more about the cinema Cine Thission best in the world by CNN.

The cafes around the Acropolis are quite expensive but if you choose one further away you will find better prices.
When we go around the area we go down Iraklidon Rd which leads to a nice pedestrian area with cafes and we usually drink rakomelo a warm mixed alcoholic drink. If you don't like alcohol do not try it, as it is quite strong.
After that we head for Agia Marina church. The view is very nice.
Our apartment is 5 stops to Thission by line 1 metro. If you take a taxi it might cost 4-5 euros.
