Syntagma Square and the Changing of the Guard - Athens
Last Updated: 18th Mar 2013
Syntagma (Constitution) Square is home to the Parliament Building, home to the Greek Parliament but once the palace of the Kings of Greece. The Square is also home to the tomb of the unknown soldier and the traditionally dressed, pom-pom toe-ed guards, known as Evzoni. You can see the Changing of the Guard here every hour and if you’ve travelled all the way to Athens it worth hanging around to see the ceremony.

This is definitely worth checking out if you’ve got some free time in Athens. It was unlike any changing of the guard I’d ever seen. I’ve written a blog post about it here: http://www.girlintrepid.com/2011/05/04/unmissable-changing-of-the-guard-in-athens/

Cafe lattes, bruchetta, chianti, gnochi, limoncella, baci chocolates, gelati, pizza, it's impossible to not try everything in Italy.
...hikes along the provided paths through basins of hot springs and geysers are an amazing experience...
I went on two tours alone...I made life-long friends along the way! That's the nature of Contiki.
