From September, the Greek authorities will limit the number of visitors to the Acropolis to 20 thousand people per day, writes “Europulse”.
The excessive flow of tourists has a bad effect on the state of the ancient monument, included in the UNESCO World Heritage List - they leave a lot of garbage, in addition, tourists create serious noise pollution.
It is planned that the number of tourists to visit will be delimited by hours. For example, from 8 to 9 in the morning 3 thousand people will be able to see the attraction, and from 9 to 10 – 2 thousand.
The Acropolis was built in the V century BC. In those days, it housed the main temple of the goddess Athena - the Parthenon.
