Panathenaic Stadium

Highlight • Historical Site

The Panathenaic Stadium (Greek: Παναθηναϊκό Στάδιο) in Athens (also known as Kallimarmaro, "beautiful marble") is the Olympic stadium of the first modern Olympic Games in 1896. It was built as a reconstruction on the foundations of the ancient stadium and is located on the outskirts of Athens city centre.

Agia Sotiria Lykodymou & Holy Trinity Church

Highlight • Religious Site

A little hidden by the surrounding buildings and by the tourist places nearby, but it's worth the detour to go there and find a little peace and quiet.

Hellenic Parliament Building

Highlight • Monument

King Ludwig I of Bavaria commissioned the building so that his son Otto I and his wife Amalie could move into accommodation in Athens that was appropriate for the royal couple. During a four-year construction phase, the building was built in the neoclassical style by the court architect Friedrich Gärtner from 1834 to 1838. The result was an imposing and at the same time simple-looking ochre-colored building, which stands out not least because of the porch on its main front supported by Doric columns.
The Greek parliament has been meeting in this impressive building since 1935.

Changing of the Guard at the Presidential Mansion

Highlight • Historical Site

While the changing of the guard in front of Parliament is known to some, that in front of the President's Residence is more of an insider tip. You can see both together if you just follow the retreating guards from Parliament and then continue marching to the Presidential Palace!
