The Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC) is a modern architectural treasure in Athens, Greece designed by Renzo Piano. It was built on an abandoned seafront property in the southern suburbs of Athens. Today the property has been transformed into a hilltop complex that includes an opera house, a new home for the National Library of Greece, and a 42-acre park.

Looks Amazing!
It’s a wonderful place for both cultural and family-oriented activities.
Does it have a green roof? I like the way it’s out in the middle of nature on its own.

No green roof but it overlooks the sea on one side and a large park & the acropolis on the other side. The center has a large green space, a small artificial lake for kayaking, and cultural activities. And, the park has mosquitoes, as I found out the hard way!! 🙂
Mosquitoes are one thing I don’t miss during the winter. 🙂

I visited last week to watch an Opera, what a stunning building.
Nice! It is a stunning building. I hope you enjoyed the Opera.
I love the first photo very much. ❤ The colours, the symmetry, perfect.
Thanks, Manja. I lucked out, as it was late afternoon and I unwittingly captured that golden glow in the building and grasses. 🙂
