Municipal park

view from the municipal park in hania

The is is the view from the municipal park in Hania looking towards the street. It isn't remarkable, especially considering that it is a prime property area. The apartment building in the centre of the photo is built in the typical functional style of the early 1980s with (abominable) brown aluminium shutters, but at least the people who live in it have a nice view of the park, and not some other person's apartment.

  8. Everything that is green is welcome, especially if the alternative is shutters made of aluminium.

  9. Maria- I have sat in that park waiting for time to take the bus to Paleochora. The best part is listening to the conversation of the old men! Thanks.

  12. My Greek flat has brown aluminium shutters and I don't mind them at all. They are very low maintenance - unlike the wooden frames we have here, which seem to need painting from scratch every few years!

    Nice little park - does anyone use it?
