Parliament

This building used to house the royal family when Greece was a monarchy. Once the people voted on having a republic of Greece, the palace was converted into their Parlement building. In front of the building is the tomb of unknown soldier, which the second picture is depicting. You will see two guards in front of it with their legs raised. Their is a pair of guards every hour who protect the tomb, and at half passed the hour, they have a routine of stretching their legs. This image captures them mid-routine.
