Sightseeing in Faliro
Sightseeing in Faliro
On Poseidonos Avenue 41 you will see a statue of Konstantintinos Palaeologos on his horse. It is a work by the academic sculptor Ioannis Pappas, who in this way wanted to pay tribute to the last emperor of the Byzantine period. Set in a very beautiful location by the sea, it is always well preserved and clean. More than usual, the statue initiates its viewer to search and to learn more about the person it depicts.
