Excellent Investment Opportunities in Greece This vast area of Piraeus is called Freattida and has always been the epicenter of life, trade and events at all stages of Piraeus's long history. It is no coincidence that the port of Freattida was chosen by the ancient Greeks for the import of grain Zeas, from where it received the name Marina Zeas, and also later, during the Turkish occupation, from Pasha as the main port of Turkish ships, from where it received the name Pasalimani. Moving on to today, the area remains the absolute center of life in Piraeus, as the marina is now surrounded by a number of award-winning restaurants, cafes, shops and museums, declaring Freattida a unique meeting point between modernity and Greek tradition.
