The eastern portion of Chaidari was mainly made up of farmlands. Pasture farming was common. Urban development replaced much of the farmlands between the 1950s and the 1980s. Today, the eastern half of the municipality is urbanized or residential. The rocky landscape of [[Aigaleo]] with a few bushes lies to the north and northwest. The [[pine]] forests of Dafni along with a [[Daphni Monastery|monastery]] and a forest park lie to the west and the southwest. |
