    The Parthenon was blown to pieces during the war with the Italians and the ottomans. The ottomans had stored ammunition in the Parthenon and the Italians blew it up. There has been a great improvement to the whole hill of acropolis through the years. The process is slow, but these are ancient marbles and they are trying to make them as close to the originals as possible. Both material and structure wise.
    It’s not something that they just want to build up. It’s something that should be well taken care of. And don’t forget Greece is struggling economically too

      That's a very interesting bit of History that I've always found great to know. That mixture of the ancient past with the modern era intermixed

    Yeah unfortunately you will not find many fast food places or markets like 7/11 or CVS in Greece. All our small convenience stores are for chips and cookies. Not sandwiches or other stuff. For “fast food” we have bakeries where you can buy small savory pitas etc.
    For sunscreen you can only find them to pharmacies or supermarkets.

      They make 711 look like health food
      the actual restaurants and take out places are generally very good

      @@universome511 yeah they are not supposed to sell “food” it’s like a snack/smoke/bllsht store. So I wouldn’t compare them to 711 or CVS.
      We don’t have something equivalent to 711 or cvs that sale pretty much everything (and this is something that I miss so much)
      For fast food like sandwiches toasts etc we have something called “Everest”.“Gregory’s” also sells “fast food” kinda stuff. And our fast food is mainly suvlaki 🤣

      @@DamnIt00 they shouldn't sell anything then
      You know it's funny you mention it because I actually saw a convenience store that was just named Eleven but almost in the 711 font

      @@universome511 oh no! They share their purpose too. These are the places that we just get smoke, chips etc. We don’t have designated stores for smoke etc. so these are ours.
      If we want “fast” food we go to bakeries or small cantinas.
      And for medical stuff we just go to the pharmacy.
      It’s just probably that you didn’t know how to navigate and look for certain stuff. But you know we do things differently in every country.

      @@DamnIt00 I think my meaning did not come across. what I'm saying is you should just have the bakeries because those serve very nice and healthy food
      the convenience stores have nothing but the most extreme slop garbage that doesn't even count as food so they should be shut down
      true it's always just a little bit different in every place
