Now,this I consider the most tradtional,old and attractive Square in Zakynthos Town!All special festivities take place every so often once that it's connected to Solomos Square. It's a meeting point for strolling,having a coffee break,having lunch or dinner,visiting tourist shops and a special attraction is the Solomos and Kalvos Mausoleum in which the graves of our National Poet Dionysios Solomos and our other famous poet Kalvos and his englsih wife exist.The Museum is full of paintings,statues,works of eminent mayors and ministers,poets and painters are kept.The lovely Catholic Church adds to the traditional touch of the Square.This is where the Revolution took place in 1628 against the Venetian Nobility who used to take advantage of lower classes.The stonework on the ground takes you back to a lost era!I just love St.Marcus' Square representing the old traditional Zakynthos as it existed before the 1953 earthquakes destroyed the island!Do visit it,it's worth it!There are people everywhere drinking,relaxing,enjoying music,shopping,chatting,walking around,enjoying a friendly local lifestyle!
