Ippodromiou Square

The shape of Ippodromiou Square is reminiscent of the ancient hippodrome, which was located here.

After the massacre, the area was considered haunted and was eventually deserted. In the centuries that followed, the name of the area was altered and it was called Prodromi or Prodrom, while the Jews called it Gale Anza or Alpedromo Nuevo and the Turks Yasi Yol.
