You're standing on Panepistimiou Street in the heart of Athens, just off Syntagma Square. The grand building in front of you is the Iliou Melathron, the Palace of Ilion. It was once the home of the archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann. Today it houses the Numismatic Museum, one of the most important museums in Greece.
