Christmas Holidays in the city of Athens day 1

Lovely walk where else in Plaka with last stop at Little Kook. The fairytale coffee shop.

Opposite the Tower of the Winds one can see the Gate of Mentrese. During the Ottoman occupansy it used to be an Islamic school. Later on it became a prison. From here started the first rembetika songs called mourmourika that the prisoners used to sing.
