Panathenaic StadiumEmbark on a journey into the past at our initial stop, the Panathenaic Stadium. Here, delve into its fascinating history and take the opportunity to snap stunning photographs to preserve your treasured memories. This unique stadium, the only one in the world entirely made of marble, was first built in the 4th century BC. It was carefully reconstructed in 1896 for the first modern Olympic Games, symbolizing Greece's deep sporting tradition and rich cultural heritage. 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)
- The Temple of Olympian Zeus was dedicated to Zeus, the king of the Olympian gods, and was intended to be the greatest temple in the ancient world. It served as a symbol of the power and wealth of Athens and was a focal point for religious and civic ceremonies. (pass by)
