Venture into the middle ages by visiting the 14th-century Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes. Established in Rhodes during the second crusades, it was built over the site of a Byzantine fortress and stood as a palace until the Ottoman occupation. Follow the Knights' Road up to the palace (now a museum), and investigate the architecture and artifacts housed inside. Lavish reminders of the palace's golden history await!
The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier lies across the street from the Hotel Grande Bretagne in Athens. It is guarded day and night by Evzones, the Presidential Guard. Much like the guards at Buckingham Palace or Swiss guards at the Vatican, the Evzones must remain completely still at all times except when they change positions with each other or exchange shifts.
