236_Athens_spice_market

Athens_spice_market. After lunch several of us wandered off to the central covered market.
This spice seller on the outer perimeter had quite a collection. We were particularly
amazed at the 2 foot long cinnamon sticks, visible in the upper left. I had no idea
it came that large. The interior of the market was predominantly meat and fish
vendors and the smells got a bit much as it was late in the day.
