Vasilissis Amalias Avenue (Greek: Λεωφόρος Βασιλίσσης Αμαλίας, "Queen Amalia Avenue") is a major avenue in Athens, Greece, linking with Andrea Syngrou Avenue in the south and Panepistimiou Street in the north. The avenue has three lanes and further north four with two coming from Vasilissis Sofias Avenue. The National Garden lie on the eastern side of the avenue and residential buildings cover the west with eight to ten storey buildings in the northwestern part.[1]

Visitor attractions aside from the National Gardens themselves include the Greek Parliament with the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to the east and Syntagma Square (Constitution Square) to the west,[3][1] the Arch of Hadrian and the Temple of Olympian Zeus to the south and the Zappeion on the eastern side at the centre of the avenue.[1]
