Whether you come for the food (traditional Greek savory items like spanakopita or sweet baklava are a must-eat) or for the cultural experience (dancing, music and more), it’s a win-win situation. Don’t forget to take in a cathedral tour and “ooh and aah” at its the breathtaking Byzantine style and say a little prayer while you’re there. The parking and traffic nightmare is worth it.
