View of the Zappeion Gardens on a sunny day in Athens, Greece.

The southwestern third of the green space at the center of Athens, adjacent to the National Gardens, is a network of wide, tree-shaded walkways around the grand Zappeio Palace. The main entrances are on Leoforos Vasilissis Amalias and Leoforos Vasilissis Olgas.

The open-air Aegli Cinema is alongside the palace.
