The term 'Greek Promenade' refers to two architectural features of Ancient Greece: the STOA and the Xyst. The STOA was a long, covered walkway with columns on either side, often used as a public gathering place. The Xyst was an open-air colonnade, usually located in a gymnasium, where athletes would exercise and compete. Both the STOA and the Xyst were important elements of Ancient Greek architecture and culture.
