Varvakios Central Market, Athens
On Athinas Street, halfway between Omonoia and Monastiraki, stands the city's stomach: the Varvakios Agora, Athens' central market since 1886, a long glass-roofed hall where the meat market's marble counters and the fish market's iced stalls feed the capital. Around its doors cluster the spice shops, herb sellers and tripe restaurants of the old market streets. Every Athens kitchen, from taverna to grand hotel, begins its day here; it is the everyday-city scene the monuments never show, and the loudest, most fragrant room in Athens.
