F	Frank Wils on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Neo-classical palace build by the English in the 19th century. Quite interesting history behind the building which also served as residence for the Greek royal family and the location of a recent EU summit. Now housing the museum of Asian Art and a number of rooms for temporary exhibitions The museum is reviewed separately but the building itself is also worth the visit, especially the room with the dome. The gardens can be visited for free and have some amazing views on the old Fortress, Faliriki and Vidos island.
