ATHENS, Jan 23 — Greece’s conservative government has announced plans to reopen a former royal estate outside Athens for eco-friendly visits and a possible springboard for a range of farming products.
The Tatoi estate served as the home for the Greek royals for decades but was abandoned in 1967 when the country was taken over by a military junta.
The rustic 10-acre estate now lies abandoned, its 55 buildings in disrepair, some barely standing after being repeatedly looted.
