Attiki (Template:Langx Script error: No such module "IPA".) is a neighbourhood of Athens, located northwest of the city centre.

History
During antiquity, Attiki was part of Kolonos and was considered the most aristocratic neighbourhood of Ancient Athens, owing to its proximity to the Cephissus river. Nowadays, this river is hidden under Leoforos Kifissou.
The area was extensively urbanised during the 1960s and 1970s.
