		A new round of debate on the topic opened this week, with Greek lawmakers discussing whether to reinstate a former mosque in the Athens tourist district of Monastiraki, currently used as a folk art museum.
		A lively debate has begun, with both proponents and detractors noting that the proposed site in Monastiraki, built in 1759 during the Ottoman occupation of Greece, is a stone's throw away from the Greek Orthodox Church cathedral in the city centre.
		Questioned by AFP about the Monastiraki proposal, Abdeltrassou said the former mosque could only provide a "temporary solution" due to its small size.

		Monastiraki Square, the hub of tourism in Athens, is the picture of neglect: Gray, dirty, inhospitable, sometimes even dangerous, the gateway to the Athens-Piraeus electric railway (ISAP) and the metro to Plaka, Monastiraki and Psyrri comprise the worst possible negative advertising for the city’s historic center.
		It is sordid, especially on Friday and Saturday,” Nikos Kouyioumtzis, the president of the Monastiraki Storeowners’ Association, told Kathimerini.
		Tourists come to Monastiraki and get hassled by beggars, junkies and street sellers who are peddling knockoffs of designer sunglasses and watches.

		At its foot are the Ancient Agora (Market) and the Plaka, Athens's oldest neighborhood, many of whose street names honor Greek heroes from either classical antiquity or the Greek War of Independence.
