Hellenic Parliament

We walked from Monastiraki to Syntagma Square. It's always busy here so it's a good place to people watch. Found a bench and sat there for awhile. 

Finally got up from sitting and climbed the stairs up to see the Hellenic Parliament.

We saw a crowd of people starting to gather in front of the entrance and I knew that it was almost time for the changing of the guards.

It was interesting to watch the guards perform the ceremony in their uniforms. I applaud them for enduring the heat while wearing their full uniform.
