In the 1960s, art galleries were created with the support of artists and intellectuals and the area received many tourists during the 1968 Summer Olympics.
The cosmopolitan feature of the area attracted local and international visitors which encouraged the creation of hotels, jewelries, nightclubs, handicraft markets as well as the city’s best restaurants and antique stores.
