I love good shopping and this flea market is among my favorite markets I've ever attended. It's a combination of new items as well as old. There are pockets where people display antiques at fun, negotiable prices (see my pics). And you can also buy souvenirs or newer items here. It's quite extensive and runs along some very interesting ruins like (I think it was) Hadrian's Library so it's a very Athens experience. It's conveniently all day on Sunday. I wish I lived closer because I'd attend on a frequent basis if it were nearby. It's right at the subway station, making it very convenient from all over town. Spend an hour or five : )

If you're in Athens for days and days, and you've gone to ALLLLL of the primary must-see sites, all the museums, all of the ruins - then if it happens to be a Sunday, go to this flea market! It's tons of fun - special booths and blankets set up for you to rummage through and rummage some more! I think some mistake this flea market for the general area of Monastiraki, which is not the same......there are lots of brick and mortar souvenir shops in the area, but don't mistake those for the flea market, where vendors come and lay out their blankets and lay out their wares. We spent several fun hours here, back alleys, squares, lots to see and well, rummage through! Have fun!

This is not really a flea market - at least not on weekdays when we were there. It’s a long line of souvenir shops with predictable and tacky stuff probably all from China. Some nicer stores but mostly just more of the same things. In a small section we did find some antique stores and I was able to purchase a nice brass knocker and some other little things.

A Tourist Trap but worth walking through to buy souvenirs and other items to bring home. This is a walking flea market and Hadrian's Library, Ancient Agora and Temple of Hephaestus are all in this Square. Worth seeing. Right off Ermou Street. The attractions cost to enter and didn't seem worth it, you can easily just take pictures through the fences.

The flea markets has lots of shops! We were able to shop for souvenirs for the Grandkids easily all in one place. It is a cute little street with many small streets off to each side. You can find just about anything in the area. We enjoyed just looking. You do have to watch prices- otherwise, don’t grab items at the first place you come to. Walk the street and then go back to the places that were less expensive. They carry a lot of the same items and the prices vary from store to store. We saw small items range from 80 cents to $1.50. Bracelets from $1 to $5 and these were for the exact same item! Still a great area to shop!
