Did you know that:
- The municipality of Vouliagmeni was created in 1935 and includes the areas Small and Large Kavouri, Saint Nikolas and Laimos.
- In order to access the area of Glyfada up until 1928, you could either take the main Faliro road by the seaside or by horse carriage via the Athens - Vari road.
- Access between Athens and Voulagmeni was established around the year 1920 where a four-horse carriage called the "arabas" could be used.
- In 1955, Glyfada's Town Hall moved to a building which was built in 1925 and was previously a night club called Trouvil.
- The hospital Asklipio Voulas was established in 1920 and its initial aim was to cure patients of tuberculosis.
- In the area of Αnavissos there have been recorded traces of human presence from prehistoric times.
- In the area of Glyfada, where today the night club Asteria is located, there used to be the first mixed baths for both men and women. They actually used to be a favourite meeting point for the "good society" of Greece.
- Glyfada was envisaged to be a residential area near the sea which would attract Athenians for a swim. This is exactly what its founder Piros Karapanos had in mind when it all started in 1920.
- The area of Glyfada at large is one of the richest areas of Athens today. The area's rapid development is connected to the establishment of US bases in the sub-area of Elliniko.
- The largest tunnel in the world is 800 m. in length and is found in Lake Vouliagmeni. There are thirteen more tunnels in the area.
