Sepolia
Sepolia ( el, Σεπόλια ) is a neighborhood north of the center of Athens, Greece. The Sepolia metro station is situated in the neighborhood. Sepolia owes to its name in the Greek phrase ''esopolis'' (έσω πόλις), which means "inside the city". Sepolia was a remote settlement until the latter part of the 19th century, a few kilometers away from Athens. The Greek Census of that period didn't include Sepolia as part of Athens.
