urban travel tales, Omonoia square, Athens Greece

At the heart of Athens, Omonoia square beats for Christmas 2012

December 20, 2012 by Lisa Samloglou

*Omonoia square at night It is funny how lucky I can be sometimes when I become more adventurous. This happens usually when I am working on fixed ideas. Like, I wanted to add some night photos to the day ones taken from Omonoia square, the traditional heart of Athens city. So, I took a taxi at 9 p.m. The taxi driver’ s wife was sitting next to him, as I found since he got pleasantly talkative; this is a quality […]
