The street of the metro
If you come out of Akropoli station you are on Athanasiou Diakou, at its junction with Makrygianni Street. Lempesi is the next street towards Syngrou Avenue: follow Athanasiou Diakou for one block and turn in. Two minutes with a suitcase.
Athanasiou Diakou is a busy little street: the supermarket, the bakery chains where Athenians buy their morning koulouri, an ice-cream shop, mini-markets, and the Royal Olympic hotel at the Syngrou end facing the Temple of Zeus. It is the practical street of the neighbourhood, the one you use rather than the one you photograph.
From the Syngrou end of the street, the lockers are three to five minutes; the Temple of Olympian Zeus is right across the avenue.
