Syntagma Square, or Constitution Square, got its name in 1843, when King Otto presented the country's Constitution to the population. It is home to the former royal palace, where the Greek Parliament has been sitting since 1932. Among the attractions of Syntagma Square are a large fountain and copies of statues from the Naples Museum, which were donated to the city by Lord Beaulieu in the 19th century. In addition, there are about a hundred trees growing here: oranges, cypresses, oleanders.→
