We cordially invite our honored air travelers to begin their tour from this iconic location.
  • The Changing of the Guard at the Hellenic Parliament in Athens is a significant and ceremonial event. Taking place at Syntagma Square, it features the Evzones, an elite Hellenic Army unit who also serve as the presidential guard. These guards, adorned in traditional attire including kilts (foustanella), shoes with pompoms (tsarouchia), and a cap (phareon), engage in a highly coordinated routine. This ritualistic and slow-motion performance, which occurs every hour, is a tribute to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. It not only attracts numerous tourists but also stands as a symbol of Greece's national pride and historical heritage. (pass by)
