Capital and port of the island, Zante is expanded on the foot of the hill under the Castle. The destructive earthquakes of 1953 and the fire that followed destroyed the beautiful old town with the high villas and the imposing buildings. Some of the buildings and manor houses with the picturesque color of ochre, lodges and Venetian arcades steel remain untouched. Do not miss out walking in Strata Marina on the beach, the famous Rougha, the commercial center with the picturesque arcades and the paved central square of Saint Marcos assembling the biggest traffic. You may also find the Post- Byzantine Museum of Zante, the Library and the church of Saint Nikolaos of the Mole, a renaissance- type building of the 17th century with a Byzantine campanile. In the center of the square dominates the statue of Dionyssios Solomos, national poet of Greece. The coast road, Strata Marina (K. Lomvardou), is the busiest point of the city during summer months.

As you leave from the port, a few streets away from Solomou square and walking to the inner part of the city, you reach Saint Marcos’ square.
