Are you bored to see historical monuments, hanging around in some-hole-on-the-wall bars in Athens or worry about the economic crisis? Allou Fun Park is not only fun but a dazzling place to spend a night or day of escapism.

A Greek word Allou means either that you want to go somewhere else or that you are a bit high in your own world. That is exactly what we all need every now and then - to be lost in the map of the fairy tale land.

Well, Allou Fun Park has it all taken care of. You can have some fun with the rides and eat, drink, play and have a dose of adrenalin while doing it.

Dive into the amusement park from one of the three gates free of charge (a fee is charged for using the rides and games) and find yourself taking the coolest thrill rides of the park. Let 6G shoot you into the sky or come down 40 meters with Free Fall.

There are also rides like Crazy Mouse roller coaster, New York bumper cars, Water Tunnel or Panorama, the largest observation wheel in Greece, for those who are more of traditional amusement park seekers.
