Extra info

On a side note: the adjoining Kiebitzstraße (translated to (Ευρωπαϊκή) Καλημάνα street) may offer hints at what kind of birds used to be around this area (there are no other bird-related street names nearby!).

IMPORTANT NOTE: this is a bathing lake! If using binoculars and a spotting scope, try not to be creepy ;)
