    Usually the crowd on the Acropolis is not so big. It was known that it was a free ticket day that's why there was so many visitors.

    Thessaloniki is less touristy. Litochoro is great but Greece is more of a summer destination. A lot of shops near the beaches are already ending their season. Kalamata still has nice weather

    Athens used to be in the 1950 - 1960 ‘s even better looking according to short stories told by elders. There used to be even more wonderfull neoclassical structures (of the 19th century) but due to massive reconstruction without any planning and without timetables many of them were demolished and replaced by mainly horrible apartment buildings. Thus Athens lost quite a piece of its character. Ι will sound morbid but a visit to the 1st cemetery of Athens where many famous Greeks are buried like Melina Mercouri Andreas Papandreou the great benefactor of Greece Georgios Averof Archbishop Xristodoulos and many others.

    The reason that you meet such full of people in the acropolis it's because we as local people know when the entrance is free and it's free all over Greece, acropolis and museums that's why we visit that's places in that unique day😉

  • @sherrypalmer1283
    @sherrypalmer1283 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Avoid the crowds at the Acropolis by buying your entry ticket online, and going as soon as the gates open. One to two hours is enough time to visit, but be sure to go to the nearby Acropolis Museum.

    I spent a few weeks in Greece in 1990. We drove to Athens for 1 day (6-7 hours drive in the night) to see the Acropolis mostly. Guess what? It was closed!!! Only on that one single day, the staff was on strike 😆 had no chance to return so far.

    Hi! First of all, as a Greek person, I wanna thank you! Second, were you alone? I will go to Madrid alone in 5 months. I’m a little nervous, but also excited! I’m 20 years old and I’ve never traveled alone before, but I believe that it’s gonna be fun! So I bought my airplane tickets a month ago. I just wanna ask if you enjoy(ed) traveling alone! Greetings from Greece! 🇬🇷❤️
