Going to Greece, you should familiarize yourself with its rich history in advance. In Greece, you can see such sights that have no analogues anywhere in the world. It will also be nice to learn about the mentality of local residents, about the Greeks, who very often call themselves Hellenes, since from Greek Greece is Hellas.
Greeks do not wear hats, despite the fact that it is always hot in their country. They are very actively using the advantages of their country: solar panels are installed in their homes. This saves energy. Buildings, both residential and public, are framed with stone decoration, since there is a lot of marble in the country.
The streets of Greece are quite narrow. 50% of the population works in the tourism business, there are practically no industrial enterprises here. Most of the teachers are men, the Greeks really want to work as teachers. In general, in Greece, it is prestigious to work in budgetary institutions - this is due to social benefits and higher pensions.
Books from one academic year after graduation are burned, and are not used for the second academic year. Before the start of the school year, children read prayers at school. Despite the fact that the Greeks are southern people, they are quite calm. In public places where alcoholic beverages are sold, there are practically no fights, if a conflict situation occurs, the Greeks shout and calm down.
Greeks are friendly enough, they are always ready to help, if you get lost, ask a Greek how to get to the right address, he will always tell and show you the way.
Greeks are good-natured and measured people, while they enjoy life, so they are in no hurry. For a metropolitan resident who came to Greece, such slowness of local residents will seem strange. Also, the Greeks are very fond of folk music and dancing. To do this, they are collected by companies in specially designated places. The Greeks also love sports. Almost every local resident is engaged in some kind of sport, or just runs, or rides a bicycle, or walks on foot.
