| The
flea market on Odos Evanyelistria is a pleasant place for a ramble; Evanyelistria
parallels Leoforos Megaloharis, the main street from the harbor up to the
cathedral. The colorful stalls lining the street sell icons, incense, candles,
medallions, and tamata (tin, silver, and gold votives). You'll also find
local embroidery, weavings, and the delicious local nougat, as well as
loukoumia from Siros.
Near
the top of the street on the left is the small O Evangelismos Weaving School
(tel. 0283/22-894) and a store selling reasonably priced tablecloths, bedcovers,
and other woven items produced at the school. |
