Canicula schimbă vacanțele la Atena: Grecia învață să facă turism la temperaturi extreme
Extreme temperatures in Athens are changing how tourists experience their vacations, with increased focus on heat protection. In 2025, Greece saw a record 38 million visitors, with the Acropolis attracting 4.6 million. Tourists are now better equipped for the heat, leading to a rise in demand for sun hats and protective gear. Local vendors report increased sales of hats, with prices ranging from 6 to over 100 euros. The Red Cross is actively distributing water and sun protection materials to mitigate heat-related risks. Additionally, the ongoing heat raises concerns about electrical safety in rural areas due to wildfires.
