Kanari Square in the morning at 7am. I know because that's when the Panagia Hozofotissa leaves every day. The statue of Admiral Kanaris, a hero of the War for Independence sits in the center of the square. Originally the peninsula where the customs house and warehouse buildings are, was an island. The sea, where Kanaris square is now, was filled in to make the sheltered harbor of Hermoupolis.
