    Βεβαίως , τίς Κυριακές , τα καταστήματα είναι κλειστά !!!Η πραγματική ζωή της πόλης , είναι την υπόλοιπη εβδομάδα , με την κίνηση στους δρόμους , τον κόσμο , τό πραγματικό πρόσωπο τής πόλης ! Βέβαια , αυτό ίσως σάς δυσκολεύει , καί τό καταλαβαίνουμε ! Πάντως , καλώς ορίσατε στην πόλη μας πάλι , είστε ευπρόσδεκτοι , μας λείψατε !!!

    All the shops, restaurants and cafés look so inviting, I love it. Thanks for showing us so many cool insights.
    I was very tempted to come to Athens this weekend for the GNR concert but glad that this didn’t work out 🥵 stay safe in the heat!
    And sorry for the recurring issues with FB, I hope people will change the platform to support you.

    August is a month that Athenians leave the city for holidays. So it is not thay busy in that period anyway, many businesses are closed in August because the demand is very low since the city is empty. Of course the heatwave played its role but August is not a busy month anyway. Even without the heatwave it is definitely the wrong month to show how vibrant Athens is. Athens is dead in August, gets on pause and starts again in September.

    Dear Urbanist, I love your channel but I never know when I miss a "Live broadcast" because your page displays it at the end of your RUclips page. If you move your "Uploads" section to the top, you'll notice the section will include "Live videos", "Shorts", and regular videos that you made all in the same section at the top of your RUclips page.😊

      45 degrees with actual feeling being 50 degrees after 17 days of a heatwave with wildfires making it even hotter is not just being hot. It is dangerous and yes, people are allowed to close their shops if they choose to in this extreme conditions. A delivery man died yesterday of a heatstroke and it was still 11 in the morning.

      Of course we lock up everything. Also all kinds of jobs in external areas are stopped from 12pm -5pm. Even if Greece and Athens particularly are used to hot temperature everything above 40 is crazy hot and dangerous for humans. Around 35°C is the normal temperature for Greece in summer.

Θά περίμενα περισσότερο σεβασμό , για την πόλη πού γεννήθηκες και μεγάλωσες, μέχρι τά 12 σου χρόνια ! Η συμπεριφορά σου λέγεται Ύβρις !!! Καί είναι κατάπτυστη !!!

    Athens is garbage. It’s got a great spot for night life, but if you want to explore and tour for history, you will be disappointed. Spend no more than two days there. This is Athens in a nutshell: you pay to see old rocks in old ruins and it is underwhelming. There are drug addicts and pocket/backpack pickers all over the place, especially in the subways. The acropolis is cool. There is a really cool Airbnb I stayed in that was an old bar and has a very large retractable roof inside with trees growing in the ground. I’m telling you, spare yourself.

      @@Alexs.2599 good lord, you got really upset. Don’t be so sensitive. Who are you to disagree with my comment? Who are you to be so obnoxious to insult me? Instead of trying to convince a stranger on the internet to think something other than what they experienced, you should start your own thread to tell everyone why it’s great destination. Give some recommendations. Tell everyone how long they should stay and where to go. Or you can continue being a tool and strongly disagreeing 😉
