      Featured in the ITV series The Durrells as well as in the Corfu books of Gerald and Lawrence Durrell.

      The Liston was built during the French occupation of the island (1807-1814), by Mathieu de Lesseps. During the period of the English Governorship (1815-1864) the series of arches expanded while the floors were added gradually which nowadays house residences and offices.

      It is the center where the Corfiots meet socially since it was created, while on Good Friday, the famous procession of the Epitaphs, one of the traditional customs of the Corfiot Easter, takes place. The cobble-paved Liston serves also as the main entrance to the paved small streets of old Corfu town, A great place to take a coffee, relax and people watch, while maybe adjacent the area known as the Spianada the occasional English game of Cricket is played, and has been a tradition since the English occupation here since 1823
