Beneath the outdoor cinema sits Hadrian’s reservoir, one of the most overlooked Athenian landmarks. Even though visitors are not allowed to enter the building, the 2nd-century AD reservoir which was providing water supplies to the area is of great historical significance and is an integral part of the neighborhood’s history.
