According to the British Guardian, two Greek cinemas, “Cine Paris” in Plaka, Athens, Greece and “Cine Kamari” on the island of Santorini are in the top ten open-air cinemas of Europe.
“A rooftop cinema in the heart of the historic Plaka area sits in the shadow of the Acropolis which adds the atmosphere to any film. There is a wonderful mix of local people and tourists, with movies ranging from animation to the latest arthouse must-sees,” says the British newspaper for “Cine Paris” which is ranked fourth.
“Cine Kamari” in Santorini is located in “the most chilled place to watch a movie on the planet.” “You can recline near horizontal in a luxury deckchair, breathing in the heady mix of joss sticks and other herbal aromas, with a cocktail from the bar on the table beside you and underneath the twinkling Greek stars,” states the article.
In 2012, CNN had announced “Cine Thisio” as the best open-air cinema in the world while BBC also placed it in the top ten cinemas worldwide.
Guardian’s list with the top ten open-air cinemas in Europe includes Sala Montjuïc, (Barcelona), Pop-up cinema, (Cromarty,Scotland), Locarno on the Lake (Locarno, Switzerland), Cine Cineteca (Bologna), Moonlight cinema, (Gran Canaria), Sotto le Stelle (Verona), Rathausplatz (Vienna) and La Villette (Paris).
