Greece regained its independence from the Ottoman Empire in 1821. The Athens central market of the time was located close to Hadrian’s Library and the Roman Agora. The food market was due to be moved somewhere with more free space. Then, in 1884, a big fire destroyed several stalls, and the need for a new central market became more pressing. Two ye...
Much of the Varvakios central municipal market is covered, but certain parts are open-air. There are different sections, where all sorts of fresh and dried products are sold. You will find meat, fish, fruit and vegetable, cheese, herbs and spices, bread, cookies and olives. Between the separate food markets, there are several deli stores. You will ...
The meat market is the first covered section you will see on your right hand side, if you are walking from Monastiraki metro. This is the most shocking section for some tourists. In fact, vegetarians and vegans will most likely want to give it a miss. Here you can see many kinds of meat, from cow, pork and chicken, to more exotic types, like goat a...
Right next to the meat market, you can visit the fish section. If you can’t see it, just follow the smell. The fish market is the one that most visitors seem to be impressed with. There are dozens of different types of local fish, such as sardines, anchovies, mackerel and tuna. You will also find imported fish, such as cod and salmon. In addition, ...
Most tourists love the fruit and veg section. While it’s interesting to look at all those goats and crabs, it’s highly unlikely that you are going to cook any of that during your stay in Athens! The fruit and vegetable market is across the street from the meat and fish sections. You will see a series of open-air stalls in a large square, surrounded...
It might come as a surprise, but we have shops specializing in loose nuts, spices and herbs. My favourite nut store is 1001 Gefsis, on Athinas 42. They have the best nuts in Athens, and also sell a variety of herbs, dried fruits and more. On Evripidou 41, you can find Bahar store. This is the only dedicated spice store in central Athens that is alw...
Some of my favourite bakeries in the city of Athens are on Athinas street. They sell traditional types of bread, cookies and other goodies like honey and halva. Vegans love our bakeries! If you are a fan of cheese, there are a few popular shops to buy some local cheeses. Apart from our famous feta cheese, look out for kasseri, graviera and kefaloty...
If you walk just a couple of blocks down from the market, you will reach Sokratous and Menandrou streets. This is the Pakistani / Bangladeshi area in central Athens. While strictly speaking this area doesn’t belong to the food market, it’s so close that you can go and have a look. You may be surprised at the absence of Greek people in these few blo...

Here’s what to do in Athens on a Sunday! There is a special day of the year where the Varvakios market stays open all night long. This is the Sunday before Clean Monday. The shops and ...
After you’ve checked out the food market, you can visit the nearby Psiri area. This is a small, lively neighbourhood with many cafes, tavernas and bars. Later, stroll back to Monastiraki Square, and cross over to Plaka. Although our city is big, all these places of interest are close to each other, and you can easily visit them in the same day.

Soltanto le fugaci e sublimi visioni dell’Acropoli che balenano a tratti tra un tendone di emporio e una cascata di sandali “greci” riescono a far dimenticare la riduzione in souvenir e la “riproducibilità tecnica” di secoli di storia, arte e civiltà.
Η Mercato di Varvakeios, è definito dagli edifici che ricoprono l'edificio tra le vie Athinas, Sophocleous, Aiolou ed Evripidou. La zona più vivace di Varvakeio Agora e la più visitata è la sua Mercato del pesce posto al centro del palazzo, sotto l'imponente tetto a due falde.
The Varvakeion Athena is a Roman-era statue of Athena Parthenos now part of the collection of the National Archaeological Museum of Athens. It is generally considered to be the most faithful reproduction of the chryselephantine statue made by Phidias and his assistants, which once stood in the Parthenon. [1] It is dated to 200–250 AD.
2 feb 2023 · Frutta, verdura e spezie trovano posto al di fuori della pur enorme struttura coperta, tra empori e bric-a-brac, e sono meno stupefacenti. Chi abbia praticato i mercati turchi o magrebini, per citare soltanto un paio di esempi alternativi, non si emozionerà di fronte alla pur considerevole offerta di olive, formaggi, frutta secca, droghe ed erbe aromatiche.
