Athens War Museum, the outside tour: Guns!

Hi gents,
Today it was a sunny summer day here in Athens.
As I was returning home, I decided to make the outside tour of the Athens War Museum.
The outer perimeter is garnished with guns of various ages and makes, guns mainly from the Balkan Wars, WWI and WWII
It was a long-time wish to take some pictures of all of them and here I share them with you.
For the interior view of the War Museum, I suggest the Virtual Tour page
http://warmuseum.gr/en/virtualTour
and some 3D videos of historical battles
http://warmuseum.gr/en/3D-historical-battles
Here we go then, I made the tour, taking pictures of every gun I met, just as it is placed, not in a chronological series.
Hope you'll enjoy!
