In Athens returned at 334 and stayed there till 323, teaching at his famous โLyceumโ, a gymnasium which is located on tbe todayโs Athens National Garden. At this time, 11 years after his teachers Plato death, he founds there, by tbe rich donations of Alexander tbe Great, this โLyceumโ tbe philosophical school named else โPaeripatitikiโ which was constituted by great buildings and gardens. After Alexanderโs death in 323, in Athens took tbe political power tbe anti-Macedonians, so Aristotle was forced to leave and he went to Chalkis (his mother's family estate).
