Do you need ID to enter the Acropolis?
Why is it illegal to wear high heels to the Acropolis?
In Greece, it's illegal to wear high heels when you're touring ancient monuments like the Parthenon and the Acropolis in Athens, or any other historic site. The law was created because of concerns that heels would scratch and damage the stones. High heels are great, but they're not always appropriate.
Is there a dress code in Acropolis?
The good news is that there is no official Acropolis dress code. The Acropolis is not a religious site so unlike religious sites it does not require a modest attire. Therefore the main thing to consider when planning what to wear to the Acropolis is more dependent on weather than dress codes.
Are you allowed to touch the Acropolis?
This is a big no-no and there are signs all over the Acropolis warning visitors not to touch the marble. As tempting as it may be to touch a piece of marble that might have been carved by the sculptor Phidias himself, please restrain yourself. For the good of international relations.
