15:30: Explore Monastiraki and Flea Market!

**Learn about Hermes the God of commerce and the messenger of the Gods, since you will see Ermou street, the most commercial street of Athens **

Monastiraki is one of the most vibrant neighborhoods in Athens, famed for its mix of historical architecture and modern culture. Situated in the very center of the city, Monastiraki is home to two Ancient Agoras, an ornate mosque, the Tower of Winds, and much more.

Come explore this lively area – you'll find sidewalk merchants selling everything from fresh fruits to vintage products, antique stores, and even an amphitheater to enjoy live music. On top of that, tantalizing restaurants are scattered throughout the square, serving up both traditional and foreign cuisine, ideal for a leisurely lunch or dinner in the warm Greek sun. Come discover Monastiraki—it's an unforgettable experience!
