Syntagma Square / Kolonaki Area


Syntagma Square

Syntagma Square (Constitution Square), is located in central Athens, Greece. The Square was named after the Constitution which King Otto was forced to grant the people after a military uprising began on September 3, 1843.

The square is bordered by Vassileos Georgiou A' Street to the north, Othonos Street to the south, Filellinon Street to the west and Amalias Avenue to the east. Syntagma Square is a hub for many forms of public transportation in Athens; the metro and tram both stop here, and buses or trolley-buses are available to any point in the city. The Square is also located near many of Athens' oldest and most famous neighborhoods and tourist attractions. The neighborhoods of Plaka , Monastiraki , Psirri and Kolonaki are all within walking distance.

The Greek Parliament is just across Amalias Avenue to the East, and is surrounded by the extensive National Gardens, which are open to the public. Every hour, the Changing of the Guard ceremony, performed by Greek army troops is conducted in front of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
Changing of the Guard Evzones in front of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on the area between the Square and Parliament. On Sundays and official holidays the guards wear the traditional Evzones uniform. On these days, the ceremonial changing of the guard takes place with an army band and the majority of the 120 Evzones present at 11am.

Kolonaki Area

Athens is at its trendiest north of Syntagma, and if you have money to spend, Kolonáki is the place to do it, catering to every Western taste from fast food to high fashion. The quarter is not especially interesting for visitors to the city but it does give access to Lykavitós Hill, where a funicular hauls you up for some of the best views of the city. Also close by are two fine museums: one devoted to Cycladic Art, the other, the Benáki, an assembly of just about all things Greek, from Mycenaean artefacts to twentieth-century memorabilia.

Plaka Area
 
As soon as you start walking around Plaka's stone-paved, narrow streets, you will have the feeling that you are travelling back in time. This is Athens' oldest and, thanks to the restoration efforts which went into its buildings in recent years, most picturesque neighbourhood. You will be delighted by the beauty of the neo-classical colours of its houses, their architecture, their lovingly tended little gardens, the elegance, and the total atmosphere of the area. In Plaka, even the air is different; lighter, clearer, scented, like a gift from the gods. More Plaka
