Stavros Niarchos Foundation
Cultural Center
The Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (Greek: Κέντρο Πολιτισμού Ίδρυμα Σταύρος Νιάρχος) is a complex in the bay of Faliro in Athens which includes new facilities for the National Library of Greece (NLG) and the Greek National Opera (GNO), as well as the 210,000 m² Stavros Niarchos Park.
The Center was designed by architect Renzo Piano and its construction was funded by the Stavros Niarchos Foundation. The $ 861 million project was completed in 2016, and was donated to the Greek state in 2017.
Urbex Olympia
A slightly different photo walk; post olympia in Athens.
You can still explore a lot of 2004 – abondoned – olympic venues.
Every four years, the world’s best athletes gather for their chance at gold in the Olympic Games.
For only a few short weeks, these Olympic communities are bustling, playing host to droves of athletes and the structures they need to compete, eat, and sleep in.
After the games, the locations turn into so called lost places.
A great possibility for you to capture nice shots.
