  • Are these details incorrect?
  • The dimly lit, government-run building won’t win prizes, but inside are five floors packed with rich, beautiful folk art, from jewellery to decorate and cover the entire body to fine embroideries worked with gold and silver thread. There’s also a room of wall paintings by prim-itivist painter Theofilos Khatz-mikhail. (see Museum of Greek Folk Art)
