Cable car, Athens
Modern trailers every half an hour cover 210 meter distance below the ground to deliver travelers and locals to the highest hill in Athens (277 meters), where everyone can visit the chapel of Saint George XIX, sit in a restaurant with a panoramic view of the city. Or watch one of the performances that are held here in the open-air theater.

The cable car has been functioning since 1965 and does not stop all 365 days a year.
