Spianada

The Spianada (Greek: Σπιανάδα, pronounced [spi.aˈna.ða], "esplanade") is a large square in the city of Corfu, Greece.

It is the largest square in Greece and is located in front of the Old Fortress of the city of Corfu.

The Upper Square is adorned with architectural gems like the Maitland Monument, the Venetian fountain, the Music Pavilion or "Palko" and the monument commemorating the Union of the Ionian Islands with Greece.

Its final construction dates back to the temporary French occupation of the Ionian islands and Corfu during the Napoleonic Wars.

It is one of the most central and popular sites of the city and a tourist destination.
