The Hellenic Parliament is located in the Old Royal Palace, overlooking Syntagma Square in Athens. The Parliament is the supreme democratic institution that represents the citizens through an elected body of Members of Parliament (MPs). The guards are much photographed by the likes of me. Other photos can be found here.
