No, that’s not a spelling mistake.  Every month, small stall holders and healthy food outlets get together over a weekend to display and sell their wares.  Located somewhere different every month, this month it was held in Gazi.

Gazi is the old gas district of Athens.  Back in the 1850’s, before electricity – the gas works provided street lights and energy.  In 1999, the area was regenerated and is now boasts funky coffee shops, a variety of eateries and Gazarte, the cultural centre of Gazi.

Today I went along to The Meet Market.  As you can see, the wares on sale from the independent stall holders were varied and colourful.  Food is also available.

No - they're bath salts, not spices! And from personal experience, the green (mint) one works a treat.
