Ex Minister Says Acropolis Could Be Leased
Ex Minister Says Acropolis Could Be Leased
I may be missing something here, but leased to whom, and for what purpose? Projection of adverts onto the stones? Holding hospitality events? Or outsourcing the access arrangements?

Greece's ancient sites to play starring role in recovery
But what would the administration costs be, and the staff to ensure that the "archeaological trasures" were not damaged. And what about access by normal visitors - would that be stopped on days when the sites were leased? so the loss of income from tickets. and disgruntled tourists perhaps deciding not to visit Greece again? A good idea in theory, but needs thinking from to stop it back-firing.Archaeological treasures including the Acropolis and the temple of Delphi will be available as backdrops for filming and photographic shoots for as little as €1,600 (£1,339) a day
