The Zappeion Hall, located in the National Garden of Athens, is a neoclassical building that today serves as a congress and exhibition center. Even without going inside, its exterior is truly impressive, and it’s a great spot for taking photos. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.

Gorgeous space and venue to rent. The guy who founded it has his head buried in the wall, which is cool. The entryway columns make for a gorgeous backdrop at the golden hour. And there’s a green space in front where dogs play, which is nice to watch!
