A	Arianna Bernasconi on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The living centre of Athens! Full of souvenirs shops and fruit stands, street artists and colours. Just a bit further there's an archeological site and a stunning view of the acropolis. On the right, you have the flea market and in other small streets you will find many traditional restaurants. Just watch out for pick pockets and hold on to your belongings.

T	Travel That on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ One of the most vibrant places in Athens! If you're in the city, be sure to spend some time at Monastiraki Square to get a feel of the atmosphere of Greece - it's one of the places that contains that atmosphere the most. Listen to the musicians playing, buy some fruit and eat it while people rush around you. Talk to the vendors selling small souvenirs and try to refuse them. Eat at one of the tavernas around. All this just below the great Acropolis that looms above you. This is 100% Greece!
D	Dejan Braki on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Monastiraki is one of Athens liveliest neighborhoods - a mix of history where on one hand one will find Greek and Roman ruins, Ottoman Mosque, Orthodox Churches ..etc and on the other hand hundreds of bars, restaurants, clubs, souvenir shops,... The area is much more interesting and nicer at night. The main square is just beneath the spectacularly illuminated Acropolis. Here you will find bunch of restaurants and shops. For clubs and cafes cross the main street and get lost in the maze of alleys with terrific graffiti, murals and all kinds of clubs. NOTE: this is a highly visited area, so you might expect scams and pickpockets here. In order to avoid several travelers experience here, use your common sense as in any other city and you'll be fine.
E	Emre Kucukkirca on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Too crowded place. Nice historical buildings in this square. The entrance of the flea market is also here. make sure to bargain before you buy anything in the flea market. There is an old mosque converted to church in the center of the square. There are also a few churches.
D	Dan A on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Monastiraki area is the place to be! Within walking distance of most attractions, it’s an interesting place to stay. The square itself is vibrant and alive, but can also be quite dirty. Definitely a place to visit when it’s quiet in the morning hours.
