The Acropolis, Greece’s star attraction for 2,500 years, may be preparing for a bigger role.
The Greek government lowered the permit costs
this month for using archaeological sites and museums for film crews to
1,600 euros ($2,039) a day from as much as 4,000 euros in a 2005
pricelist, and for professional photographers to 200 euros from 300
euros, according to the Culture and Tourism Ministry. Historical spots
include the Acropolis, which houses the Parthenon, and Delphi, home of
the ancient oracle.
