Poseidonos Avenue

Poseidonos Avenue, also known as Paraliaki, is the main coastal road of the Athens agglomeration, Greece. It runs from new Faliro in Piraeus to Glyfada and beyond, traversing all the coastal suburban cities; thus it is the major highway in the southern part of the Greek capital and one of the largest in the Athens urban area.

The road is notable for having some of the stadiums that were used in the 2004 Athens Olympics, going through the major Olympic complexes of Faliro and Hellinikon. Several Greek films were shot on the road, particularly between the 1950s and the 1980s, along with television shows since the 1980s. The road turns into GR-91 after Glyfada, a dangerous road due to the street racing culture. Madra Mandicencio, notorious street racer of the early 1970s, is said to have raced on this road no fewer than 28 times.
