It's normal for us to make waves. Why do Greeks never wave?

This is related to local customs. Greece is a country located in the southern Balkans, bordering the Ionian Sea in the west and the Aegean Sea in the east, and bordering Albania, Macedonia, Bulgaria and Turkey in the northwest, north and northeast, covering an area of about 6,543,800 square kilometers. Greece has a long history and splendid culture, and is known as the "cradle of western civilization".

1. When interacting with Greeks, if you invite guests to drink (usually coffee or Greek spirits), don't turn them down rashly, otherwise they will be regarded as humiliation; 2. Most people in Greece believe in the Greek Orthodox Church. When a lady enters the church, she must wear a long skirt (her arms can't be exposed) and can't go behind the altar.

3. Because ancient Greece is one of the four ancient civilizations, Greeks with the same history have deep feelings with China. Therefore, when Chinese talk with them, there will be many topics. However, although there are many topics, we should avoid talking about some contents, such as Greek domestic politics.

Greeks don't need to wave or wave, because for them, waving or waving is an act of contempt for others, which means "going to hell". They say goodbye, usually by waving goodbye to each other.

When taking pictures in Greece, don't stand on a tripod like nobody's watching. Because the Greek government has regulations, tripods must be approved by the government. The reason for this rule is that the Greek authorities believe that people who shoot with tripods must be professional photographers. They are worried that professional photographers will set up tripods to shoot in a big way, and it is very likely that the pictures will be used for commercial purposes. 6. Greeks avoid sneezing, which is considered unlucky. If you hear sneezing when you get up in the morning, some people have to go to bed at once to avoid bad luck. 7. Greek folk worship snakes, call them gods, and regard salt as sacred. Don't be short of salt when you sacrifice to God.
