Kolonaki Square (Greek: Πλατεία Κολωνακίου), is located in central Athens, Greece. Kolonaki itself is named after the small ancient column in the center of the square; the modern official name of this square is Plateia Filikis Etaireias (Πλατεία Φιλικής Εταιρείας) named for the "Friendly Society" that supported Greek independence. Originally, Kolonaki Square was just an area of open ground (around 1890) containing the column, and was only later planted with trees and designated as a square in about 1895-1900. The square is one block west of Vassilissis Sofias Avenue and is entered by Kanari Street on the southwest, Koumpari Street to the southeast, Kapsali Street to the east, Patriarchou Ioakeim Street to the north, Anagnostopoulou street to the northwest and Tsakalof and Skoufa streets to the west. In the center of the square there is a small ancient column (the square and district are named for the "little column"). This a well-known spot for sipping coffee and people watching. ==Gallery== File:Kolonaki Kolonakiou.jpg|The little column in the square File:Kolonaki_Square_circa_1895.png|Kolonaki Square ca.1895 File:Kolonaki-square-1925.jpg|The square in 1925 File:Kolonaki Square 3.jpg|View of the square 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kolonaki Square」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
