Varvakios Central Market
Athens, GreeceAbout Varvakios Central Market
Athens' central covered market — a 19th-century iron-and-glass hall full of fishmongers, butchers, and produce vendors who have served the city since 1880. The atmosphere is theatrical, the freshness is extraordinary, and the souvlaki stall outside produces the best skewer in the city at 7am.
