The INSANE History Found in Athens, Greece 🇬🇷

[@acaciomadeira5147]

Can you imagine living in that era 500 b.c. in its glory must have been really incredible sight

[@Travelwithchris]

Yeah that would've had to have been wild!

[@TimmyKarter]

Grew up literally 20min away from these glorious rocks…countless memories. Hope u enjoyed it mate🙌 🇬🇷 ❤

[@Travelwithchris]

Man such a great city that you grew up in! The nightlife is soooo good! Had a great time bro, maybe next time I'll catch you there!

[@robinellison5598]

[@Travelwithchris]

Yes!! Such a cool place!

[@keangwooichoo6138]

[@hayleykhan896]

The Greek guitar is the bouzouki. I love Greece, the people, the culture, the food! So stunning, man what those ‘ruins’ have seen!

[@acaciomadeira5147]

That stadium is impresive

[@Travelwithchris]

Yes it is!!!

[@Jason_Geddie]

I love the history side of these beautiful cities. That's what makes them so important and the reason we can visit these beautiful places.

[@Z051v701]

Going to Greece this spring,keep traveling Chris and have fun!

[@VladTheImpalerDracul]

I'm a huge ancient history nerd. Loved this video so much bro. Greece is definitely on my list of places I want to travel to. Just a shame they use the Euro. lol As always. Great quality video Chris. Stay safe bro. 🤙

[@Z051v701]

Thanks Chris and Andrew , love your videos. Can’t wait to come to Greece.

[@Travelwithchris]

So glad you enjoyed then and when are you planning on going?

[@julioherrera7813]

Gotta love that traditional Greek music straight from the Andean mountains of either Bolivia or Peru 😂

[@Travelwithchris]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Travelwithchris]

Now I'm aware lmao makes a lot more sense to be fair 🤣

[@patm5594]

I really enjoy seeing these great historical sites. Please keep showing us.

[@ThompterSHunson]

Parthenon fun fact: The Parthenon was built with subtle architectural tweaks to look perfect to the human eye. The columns are slightly curved (entasis) to avoid looking bowed, and the base is slightly curved upwards to prevent it from appearing to sag. The columns also lean inward slightly to correct the illusion of leaning outwards. These adjustments make the Parthenon appear perfectly straight and symmetrical. The ancient Greeks were next level.

[@ahmedgorman5970]

1:37 Your videos are just amazing as you do with them and your presence is the more amazing

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you so much!

[@KaribbeanGirl]

Beautiful! I can’t wait to get to visit Greece 🇬🇷

[@carolinemah9972]

The historical sites are spectacular!!! I was there!!! I really like the city views of Athens. Greetings from Canada.

[@RespectAndLoveAndPeaceWins]

All those people in the line was waiting to see you Chris. News travel fast 🤩The history is awsome. Culture and great architecture is something I def appriciate. Thank you for existing Chris and doin what you love and taking us with you on your journeys. I prefer these videos more than the massage parlor videos from south east Asia. So its nice with a nice mix. Thanks once again & may you have a blessed day❤️

[@Rousseau4469]

If you are still in Greece I suggest a visit to the ancient city of Korinth and it's archeological site and most definetely on its Acropolis ontop of the huge hill it lies by the ancient city. The view from there is many kilometers away and it's just breathtaking.

[@MissVee_NYC]

Thanks for this amazing video of these historic places in Greece.

[@fadingbrian]

Wow I never expected it to be so busy there was this on a weekend aswell or mid week? Awesome views bro 😊

[@Skipppp8705]

Happy Thanksgiving from Alaska!! Thanks for content mister Chris

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family as well! I appreciate your support big time!

[@ΑπόλλωνΘηρευτής]

13:10 This big rock with the nice view was Areios Pagos (dedicated to the God Aris / Mars for Latins). The assemblies of the people and the votes were held there and of course it is the place where the Apostle Paul spoke to the Athenians.

[@maverickflint1991]

Thanks for showing me the view because I may never in my lifetime see it for myself!!!😊❤️

[@dmqwik2637]

Thank you I do really like the history behind where you visit too

[@SajjadKhan-jn7cw]

[@edmarkpolicarpiopineda4541]

I love Athens. One of my favourite cities in the world. it does not have the typical European architecture but the vibe is incredible and the nightlife and food scene is insane! I think it is an underrated European city as most people only talk about Paris, London or Rome when they talk about Europe

[@lifestylerenaissance1728]

Great! Thank you!! 🥰

[@Travelwithchris]

🙏🏻❤️

[@maryremmers3414]

Hats off to you for visiting solo , again i would not have the confidence to do so

[@Pitbullmom530]

The first, MODERN Olympic Games! The original Olympic Games took place in Olympia, Greece, which is on the Peloponnesus. It’s the Panathiniako Stadium.

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you!

[@eleniasimop]

I wonder if you had visited the permanent exhibition/museum about the Olympic games which is under the sitting area of the panathenaic stadium or if you had missed it.

[@Travelwithchris]

Yes I did! Great place! They have torches from all the Olympic games

[@maverickflint1991]

Happy Thanksgiving 🦃

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family as well!

[@mikelast7918]

Princess Grace once asked Manolis Chiotis what instrument was he playing to which he replied the bouzouki. She commented that it's played similar to the guitar - Chiotis replied "with the difference being the guitar is attached to electricity whilst the bouzouki is attached to ones soul".

[@ThESlAcKeR-r5r]

But the greek viewers as me love to watch how foreigners look at our history

[@Travelwithchris]

That is amazing to hear! Thank you!

[@Rousseau4469]

I am going to disappoint you but the musician isn't even playing Byzantine music or rthymns but it sounds more of south American music maybe Bolivian or even Chilean music. Definetely not Greek music though.

[@ronjohnson4566]

i think the pipe musician is from equador or Peru.... not greek... the bouzouki music player and wife are playing freek music. i thinkit is called a bouzouki... i think the turks stored their ammunition in the Parthenon and it exploded. at some point the greeks numbered the rubble and are putting it back together...you did polykalo

[@patrickkersh1178]

Please tell me from the acropolis when panning around the view ,off in the distance there was a big dark mountain or volcano,can you please let me know what it was and any information you can tell me, thanks Chris, Patrick Kersh

The mountain with saints George is Lecabetus

Thanks for sharing!

[@rath6599]

Some years ago, some store owners would take the piss with the price of water - overcharging tourists who are already used to high water prices. The law changed to tackle this. Now, water is 1 euro per litre, everywhere. As it should be!

[@maverickflint1991]

A bunch of crazy tourists!!!

[@Travelwithchris]

🤣🤣🤣

[@ryleyw3684]

Finally got nack to watching this, its funny to me all the typical tourists who flock places, because its tourism etc. Yeah its cool to see and take pictures etc but the "typical" tourists seem to be a different type of people. I only seen the few last athens videos from this, and I wouldn't consider you that "typical tourist". I always was into greek history as a kid probably from playing my grandpas age of empires rise of rome PC game, then of course the Percy Jackson and the Olympians novels. Loved learning about it in school too.

[@Travelwithchris]

Thanks so much, I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
