Greece - Athens - Butchers in the meat market part of Athens Central Market

Agora on Athinas Street, otherwise known as the Athens Central Market. The meat market is under cover and full of the atmospheric buzz of a lively market with each stall showing of their meats with carcasses hanging up. Some of the butchers come from generations who have had stalls in the market for a century. In the last few years the EU has made the market comply with their standards and now meat is kept cool, but the atmosphere is still the same and the experience is certainly what shopping was meant to be. Athens is the capital and largest city of Greece. It dominates the Attica periphery and is one of the world's oldest cities, as its recorded history spans around 3,400 years. Classical Athens was a powerful city-state. A centre for the arts, learning and philosophy.
