@Yüşa Flöıdüğan🇹🇷 CCC Ιts amazing seeing communists and Turks agreeing once more. Communists are nothing more but Jewish, Turkish. English and Bulgarian agents.
I drank so much Loux (and Epsa) in Greece and loved it and because of that I was extremely happy when I found it some months later in Mega Image supermarket in Romania 😼
@@sprtrnds7880 you are very ignorant, ohio is a state, an urban hell full of weird creatures. Meanwhile Selanick is a small village, with happy villagers living in peace.
Mate thanks for this video. My new husband and I are currently chilling on an Athenian balcony, looking at the acropolis, drinking ouzo and Loux. Truly nectar of the gods we never would have discovered if not for this video. Love Greece, love your videos, thanks man!!
A huge part of Greek culture is contained in Orthodox Christianity. The author of the video did not tell anything about the religion and brotherhood of Greeks and Ukrainians, Belarusians, Russians, Serbs...
One of my favourite things about my rural Greek town is that you see people riding horses on the street every once in a while and never think about it, its just normal 😂 Also the Vaion weekend. It's so beautiful, with the music and the thousands of people (myself included) joining the precession to honour our ancestors' bravery. This year we hit a record *9.000* participants!

I am from Serbia and i go to greece whenever i can. My most memorable stay was 4 years ago at the final year of High school where i passed out drunk on the beach on Corfu at night with freinds from drinking metaxa with 5 stars. That shit hits harder then Rakija. I really loved that the police just asked if we are ok and went away. During summer when i come for 30 days i get arround 12kg of body mass from eating the food, even tho i swim and walk the entire day. I never understood how some people could be even fit there. If it wasnt this hard to get the citizenship id gladly move over. Nightlife in Thesaloniki is something you have to see as a tourist. In Athens i ate oranges from the central park and did not get poisoned so i approve you do the same. Only issue i find with Greece is that you people drive very poorly, to the point where i am scared to cross the street
As a UK national, driving in Greece with a shitty hatchback rental was more fun than driving a Ferrari here in London. The rules are simple, don't die and consider not to kill others. Very fun. Park anywhere. Lovely.
Greek facts no one asked for: There are over 10,000 traditional dances that come from all regions of the country. If any country is the true Dancing Queen, it's definitely Greece. 80 percent of its landmass is mountainous, but no part of Greece is more than 137 km/85 miles from the ocean! Greece has an impressive coastline of 16,000 km (9,942 miles), making it one of the longest in the world. Greece is also one of the leading olive producers in the world, and they grow the greatest variety. Some of the country’s olive trees that were planted in the 13th century are still bearing fruit today. Every time Gordon Ramsay uses a touch of olive oil, an olive grove disappears. "You know the Turks pull up, the tax man pulls up, then you want the cat army on your side" That's if Turkey doesn't pull up with their own cat army. Istanbul is known as the City of Cats, with some calling it Catstanbul (Catstantinople has a better ring to it though). Another thing that hit the Greek economy besides lack of tourism during their crisis is Coca-Cola HBC leaving for Switzerland. Coca-Cola HBC (HBC means Hellenic Bottling Company) was founded in Athens in 1969 and they are the world's third-largest Coca-Cola anchor bottler in terms of volume with sales of more than two BILLION unit cases. So when they chose to leave Athens for Switzerland in 2012, this was a HUGE blow to the Athens stock market.
I've been to Greece 4 times in my life, the first time was in 2016 to Zante which was mostly drinking and English breakfasts, so we didn't try many Greek foods that time, and to my surprise the British tourists there were far more civilized than those that go to Spain Then in 2019 we went to Roades where I had much more of a Greek experience with the chicken and pork Gyros then a Gyros pizza and we went to Lindo's castle and the Fountain youth where it's said that if you drink from there you never come home, honestly I'd had better tap water and it was covered in Angry wasps, we saw a lot of church's in Rhoades Aswell, one from 1450AD second oldest in all of Greece, we also did Olive oil and wine tasting, and on the last day we went to Roades 3ed biggest restaurant where we had a 3 course meal of Lamb and fish and Greek yogurt with syrup for dessert, and drank Mythos out of medieval pottery cups Then in September 2020 we went to Elounda Crete where we experienced Spinalonga island where people with Leprosy were quarantined from 1903-1957 and it was used by the Ottoman empire. we also went to Alice Nicholous where there was a statue of the first Mayor, in Elounda there were many Shisha bars and club 66 was the best one, if we had a meal over 30 euros we got dessert for free (Oreo cheesecake) and every time we went to club 66 for shishas and drinks we were given free melon and pop corn then crisps, so much better than in the UK. Then in 2022 We went to Malia (which means hair in Greek) which was mostly partying like Zante was and most places did Full English breakfasts for 3.50 Euro but there were places where you could get Greek food if you wished. We also experienced Zeus cove and everywhere I have being in Greece had spoken good English for those who refuse to learn any other language but for the sake of being a better tourist I've been learning Greek for over 18 months now and can't wait to go back to Greece sometime soon
Malliá means hair in Greek; Mália is spelt differently and stressed on a different syllable, and is therefore a different word. Not sure what it means, but it def doesn’t mean hair. It could be pre-Greek or proto-Greek as it’s city that has existed since ancient times.
They also have drip when it comes to their national anthem. The full Greek national anthem is composed of 158 stanzas, making it the world's longest national anthem by length of text. They are a nation proud of their history, as shown in the Athens 2004 opening ceremony. I mean they had a big pool of water and the Olympic rings formed with *FIRE!* Sure, Athens should've gotten the 1996 Olympics for the centennial occasion by default instead of Atlanta, but the 2004 Summer Games is better than no games returning to Athens. And the perfect way to end the Olympics' return to Greece, is to make some of the Athens 2004 venues become ruins...which all jokes aside, I'm glad they're turning the abandoned Olympic venues into a big green park at Hellinikon.
It’s a beautiful island with lots of beautiful beaches and tasty food.You can see a lot of sights if you want to see the history of it.Trust me,it’s a great place!!If you want to have an amazing holiday of Rhodes,you must come in summer,so you can enjoy the beaches in Rhodes! Have a great day!!❤
As a Turkish person, it is crazy for me to see there is hella similarities between our cultures. Dolmade - Dolma, Gyro - Döner, The seafood, The economical crisis and the most important, CATS.
man we where under turkish rule for 400 years ! its obvious that we share same or similar food , words , methods and many more shit ! the turkish ppl influence the greeks and the greeks influence the turkish . is so simple ,
I stayed in Omonia recently too, idk how there can be nice hotels scattered around the area but the moment you step outside you're on a set for The Walking Dead
it's because the gentrification of the area is ongoing. I am working near that sqaure for the last 15 years and I can tell you that it used to be WAY worse.
if that shit fresh then it's hella fire. you eat it, you feel good, you get fat, you get sad... but then you get thin again and you forget why eating an entire tray of the stuff is bad. same goes for many other dishes like the pasticcio (παστίτσιο) and " t h e m o u s a k a " (μουσακάς).
I'm from Serbia, and have been to greece for a vacation. The people there are so friendly its actually crazy. People there also have quite a character (in a good way hahah).Had a great time
My dude came to my hometown Volos and i didn't had a clue. I could have walked past the street with this legend and wouldn't even know it. Love your vids bro, keep it up.
Σαν Έλληνας που βλέπει αυτό το βίντεο,μπορώ να επιβεβαιωσω ότι είναι αρκετά ακριβής σε ότι αναφέρει xD Great job with the video mate ! Looking forward to see you again in greece !!
@@yolo3004 It's a Greek thing but to summarize. Λιακόπουλος is an author (of sorts) who sells books pertaining to conspiracy theories. A good chunk of them are meh tier, ie your typical Protocols of the Elders, New World Order, Bohemian Grove etc. But then again we're dealing with the Balkans here, where the conspiracy theories come with extra spice. For example forget the typical story of Alexander the Great and the mainstream accounts. According to books of Λιακόπουλο he waged war against the forces of Gog and Magog, who were invading from the hollow earth and had to be sealed away in modern day Kashmir (or Central Asia, he was never clear about that). Other theories include that all the modern conflicts of Balkans are an integral part of the battle between good and darkness, which is of galactic proportions. But reading OP's comment, I remember him saying that some ancient Spartans somehow managed to make it to Bolivia/Peru and their descendants shaped a good part of pre-Colombian civilization. So yeah, Balkan conspiracy theories put today's history channel to shame.
@@galanopouloc We must not fail to notice that Liakopoulos comes form a military family background. His father was working in NATO and even himself worked as an external consultant at NATO for a brief time. It is thus evident that like in the case of so many other para-mythologists such as Liakopoulos that there is a US-connection to all that. CIA is known for decades now to keep spreading ridiculous propagandas for para-political usage. UFOlogy is also inscribed into that, and Liakopoulos also delved into that as well.
you have a stable job or something? im a university student in greece and i want to abandon this fucking country because the government treats us like vermins
My family went to zakynthos last summer for most of our Europe trip. We had to take a flight from London. It was _filled_ with British college students. I also saw a very sun burned British man there.
Yeah I was surprised too. But for clarification, when Atatürk was born, Selanik was a land of The Ottoman Empire. As a Turkish person, I think the two countries shouldn't hate eachother. We have a bad history with Greece, yes. But we lived in the same lands with really similar cultures for a long time, we should try to get along better.
Based geopold for not only visitng the tourist traps but other places as well. Also based for calling us based. You earned a subscriber 😎. Although I prefer Vikos over Loux

Please make more parts of this video for Greece. This video is so accurate that I will recommend it as an official guide for travelers to Greece through the greek Ministry of Tourism :D :D
Everything is accurate but there's only one mistake: souvlaki is called that only in Thessaloniki, everywhere else they call it kalamaki (which is the exact same word for straw) bc they're insane. Thank you for recognizing and appreciating how based Thessaloniki is 💯💯💪
well no. kalamaki only in athens. macedonia , islands, peloponissos is called souvlaki. go to patras and ask for kalamaki and everybody will laugh. nice name btw
@@aircooledGR Όντως;; ειχα παει στο βολο και το λεγαν καλαμακι εκει, και με ειπαν κατι φιλοι οτι παντου ετσι το λενε, θα πρεπει να το ψαξω μαλλον λολ. και ευχαριστω!! :)
Apart from the eternal Gyros vs Souvlaki debate, there is the Athens vs Thessaloniki debate and I do have to say that this video has dealt irrecoverable damage to the Athens side.
Thessalonians are declared braindead at birth. They can't comprehend the fact that one word can have multiple meanings, which is why they get an aneurysm every time someone uses the word kalamaki to refer to meat on skewers. Also, "souvlaki" is a blanket term. It's like saying "pizza". You need to be more specific in order to make an order. But in Thessaloniki they only have two choices because their underdeveloped brains can't handle much more.
