Historic square in the center of Athens, one of the most recognizable against the backdrop of the Acropolis. It attracts a lot of people and is one of the squares where tourists gather because of its location and its goddess to the rock of the Acropolis. There is a metro station in Monastiraki. Beware of pickpockets!

Monastiraki (Greek: Μοναστηράκι, pronounced [monastiˈraci], literally little monastery) is a flea market neighborhood in the old town of Athens, Greece, and is one of the principal shopping districts in Athens. The area is home to clothing boutiques, souvenir shops, and specialty stores, and is a major tourist attraction in Athens and Attica for bargain shopping. The area is named after Monastiraki Square, which in turn is named for the Church of the Pantanassa that is located within the square. The main streets of this area are Pandrossou Street and Adrianou Street. The Monastiraki Metro Station, located on the square, serves both Line 1 and Line 3 of the Athens Metro.
