The church of Panagia Pantanassa is located on the square. This church was built as part of a nunnery that once stood on this spot on the square. The name Monastiraki translates as Small Monastery. It is a domed church with rich decorations on the inside. The Tzisdarakis Mosque is also located on this square. This mosque was built during the Ottoman Empire. The mosque was later deconsecrated and turned into a museum. There are a few shops under the old mosque.

Central Square in Athens where there is always a lot going on. Beware of scammers and smugglers who, of course, also stay here. Otherwise, just enjoy the hustle and bustle and explore the shops in the area.
