• Two playgrounds, two age groups: the eastern one suits preschool and early primary kids, and the toddler one is closest to the Mavromateon and Evelpidon gates
• Main playground can close for long stretches of maintenance, sometimes up to a year, so keep the toddler playground as a backup
• Stroller-friendly entrance at Protomagias Square, right next to the main playground

Pedion tou Areos is a 27.7-hectare park of pine-shaded paths, fountains, a rose garden and a botanical garden, designed in 1934 to honor the heroes of the 1821 revolution, 21 of whom stand as marble busts.

The main playground sits under the pines at the eastern end by Protomagias Square, mostly swings and low slides. A smaller toddler playground has a play ship, swings, a slide and a seesaw.
