Geo-Scavenger Hunt - We have location!

GOOGLE EARTH IS THE COOLEST!!! (I found my, roland's, and raj's house!) Anyway, let's play a game, of sorts. Here's how it works:

I will name a landmark, building, etc., and ask for people to find it. The first person to find it, verified by posting a picture from Google Earth (or another global viewing program) of stated landmark, along with latitude and longitude, wins that round! Then, the winner names the next landmark (so I can play too! :D), and we repeat.
Please don't use the search features - that makes it no contest = no fun.
I'm also going to say that the submitter of places should be able to find their landmark, so we eliminate "dud" locations (although, it'd be pretty amusing to imagine them trying to find it... :wink:).

NEW RULE: You may use a road atlas. However, please do not use the road labelling feature on the program.

Where in the world is...

The Oval

Panathinaiko Stadium
