Panathenaic StadiumThe Panathenaic Stadium, also known as Kallimarmaro, is a magnificent marble arena and a symbol of Athens’ sporting legacy.

Its horseshoe shape and tiered seating create an impressive spectacle, evoking the grandeur of ancient athletics. Visitors can walk along the historic track, imagine the roar of spectators, and enjoy panoramic views of the city.

Change of GuardsThe Changing of the Guard at Syntagma Square is a captivating tradition and a must-see in Athens.

The ceremony reaches its peak on Sundays, with a full, elaborate parade that draws crowds of locals and tourists alike. Set against the backdrop of the Greek Parliament building, the event combines history, military precision, and national pride, offering a memorable glimpse into Greece’s rich cultural heritage.

Comprising the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, the Academy of Athens, and the National Library, the trio showcases elegant columns, detailed sculptures, and harmonious architecture inspired by classical antiquity.
