Greece 2025 trip: 2690 km Mycenae, Monemvasia to Meteora & Vikos Gorge, 11 UNESCO WHS in 8 days

I visited Greece for the 4 th time in October 2025 with my wife and three kids. My wife drove our rented car for 2690 km 8 day trip over at least 16 destinations, including 11 UNESCO World Heritage Sites: Mycenae and Tityns, Epidaurus, Mystra, Bassae ( Apollo Temple), Olympia, Vergina ( Philip Tomb) . Meteora, Zagori (+ Vikos gorge), Delphi, H. Loukas Monastery, Acropolis of Athens, etc. Other prominent places include Nafplio, Monemvasia, Ioannina, Lamia, Konitsa etc. In this video I also read my verses written in 2000 or 2001, after I visited Greece and Italy for the first time in October 2000 They are some verses that I wrote in 2000 or 2001 after my 1st trip to Greece in my native language: Russian . Greece is a cradle of western civilization, the birthplace of science ( most scientific discipline names from history and sociology to biology and geometry came from Greek language) democracy, theater, literature, logic, analysis, You name it. Without this tiny on a global scale piece of land ( 131,957 km² populated by 10 M or less than 1 in 800 of humankind) the population of homo sapience could easily be 10 times less than it is now and most of us might be still clad in animal skins and sleep on the ground on the same kind of skins at best. The inspiration from Greek culture is immeasurable even for the second half 20 century. Arnold Schwarzenegger was inspired by Reg Park " The Legend" who played Hercules in Hollywood movies. Later Shwartz played Hercules or in original Greek Heracles in the movie "Hercules in New York" ( 1970) . Alexander the Great inspired Iron Maiden for the song with the same name from 1986 that accompanies this video. Alexander the Great was likely the most unmatched ruler in human history, accomplishing the most in a very short time ( or at least at the youngest age) , who definitely ( along with Julius Cesar) inspired Napoleon.( and thinks why do we ride on the right side of a road in most countries of the world or use meters). " His Socratic teaching style" is the most memorable and the most insightful accolade that I ever heard from anybody about my teaching from former colleague of mine, as a part of his feedback to my teaching. Those 11 UNESCO WHS that I visited in Greece, make up only a small minority among 399 UNESCO World Heritage sites and 87 countries that I have visited. In addition to 100s of cities, towns, museums churches and cathedral there many dozen of mountains and trails that I hiked or climbed by myself or with my children and wife as high as Peak Lenin 7134 m, including Elbrus ,5642 that I climbed to the summit 5 times with my wife and children as young as 8, 9,14 ( in 3 different expeditions with children), Ojos del Salado ( stopping 40-50 m below the summit watching my 9-year old son Peter summiting this highest volcano on Earth 6893 m ), John Muir Trail ( 360 km in 12 days) , Capital Peak with 7 year old Yunona Bukasova, North to South Rim of Grand Canyon, 42 km in 17 hours with 5 and 7 year old Alice and Yunona and so on.
