The Garden of Fokas is a contemporary playground for children of various ages, with all safety standards and constructions for children with disabilities. Some of the items are swings, individual springs, a seesaw, a slide and constructions related to balance and climbing.
The garden retained the name of the older playground, known as the Park of Odysseas Fokas, probably dedicated to the Greek painter and director of the National Gallery (1915-1946). In addition to being a playground, it was also a meeting point for many skaters, who displayed and developed their talent.
