    Fascinating to watch the elaborate tradition of changing of the guard that occurs every hour on the hour.
    Our tour guide had explained ed the history behind their very particular outfits and their precise actions which made it even more interesting!!
    If you’re in the area, definitely stop & have a look.

    This mansion is in the center of town on one of the major streets around the big park areas in the center. Lots of security around it, for obvious reasons, so you can't get close.

    Built in the early 1870s with only two storeys because municipal services were relatively sparse, the fine edifice has been substantially expanded since. This includes the addition of another floor in 1937.

    Beautifully seen from Kotzia Square, it has a central balcony supported by four Doric-style columns. This contains an abundance of greenery, shrubs and plants.

    A flat roof has ornate mini crenellations and also what appears to be a rooftop garden.

    This is where the Prime Minister has his offices and residence. It is right next door to the Presidential Palace where guards stand on ceremony outside of the Palace.
