Is Syntagma Square & Changing of the Guard worth it as a couple?
Worth itAs a couple
As a couple, Syntagma Square & Changing of the Guard works.
The Evzones' slow-motion, high-kicking ceremony in pom-pom shoes is a genuinely distinctive spectacle, free, and the grand Sunday version with the full band and kilted formation is a real event. The catch: the square itself is a traffic-ringed transport hub rather than a beauty spot, and the weekday hourly change is brief and mobbed by phone-wielding crowds.
