Time tickets introduced at the Acropolis, in an effort to manage crowds better

A new system of timed entrance to the site of the  Acropolis went into effect on zone allows 3,000 people; it  will not allow 3,000 + 1.

This means that visitors have a  greater opportunity for the  right touring and enjoyment of  this major monument,” she  added. 

The new system will provide a  constant flow and prevent  congestion both at the site and  at the entrance, where a  bottleneck often occurred.  

Mendoni said that from July to  early September, Cultural  Resources Organization and  archaeology officials of the  Athens Ephorate had met with  tourism officials and guides to  brief them and give them time  to adjust to the new  procedure.
