Omonoia Square


I took this photo early in a Saturday morning when the only people outside and on the road were the taxi drivers.

This is the official city centre (e.g. every kilometer distance to other cities is measured from here) Omonoia in greek means "concord". Well, we have a Place de la Concorde ourselves. :-)

Isn't Omonoia Square one of the most dangerous places in Athens these days in terms of crime?

Well, let's say it's not the place to be when the dark falls. But, generally, it's a perfectly safe place to walk during the day.
