- Syntagma Square, named after the Greek word for "constitution," is not only the location of the Hellenic Parliament but also a hub of significant monuments. It's a place where visitors can immerse themselves in the history of the modern Greek Republic and its political evolution. One of the most captivating events at Syntagma Square is the Changing of the Guard in front of the Hellenic Parliament. This event showcases the Evzones, the Hellenic Army's prestigious unit also serving as the presidential guard. They don the traditional foustanella (kilts), tsarouchia (pompom-adorned shoes), and phareon (caps). Their routine, both meticulous and ceremonial, takes place every hour. It's a slow-motion performance that pays homage to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, drawing tourists and serving as a potent emblem of Greece's national heritage and enduring pride. (pass by)
