A pocket of colourful 19th-century warehouses near the port — once the olive-oil market (ladi means oil), and one of the very few quarters left almost untouched by the Great Fire of 1917, which is why its old buildings still stand. Declared a protected district in the 1980s, it is now the city's most concentrated cluster of tavernas, mezedopoleia, and bars.

Goed om te Weten

Eating and going out — it is the restored warehouse district packed with tavernas, mezedopoleia, and bars, busiest after dark.

The name comes from ladi, 'oil' — this was the city's old olive-oil market, its 19th-century warehouses storing and trading oil near the port. It's one of the very few central quarters spared by the Great Fire of 1917, which is why its colourful old buildings still stand, later restored into today's lively dining-and-nightlife district.
