I had avoided Greece because I had heard that the sites were mostly roped off- -you could look at the structures from a distance but not get on them. I have since heard this NOT the case, which changes things enormously. Probably will go their next year.

In Mexico and Honduras, "fencinf off" is becoming increasingly common. I know why they do it- -tom preserve the structures. Nevertheless, it removes the pleasure and the reason for going. Nothing in Turkey was fenced off.

In Mexico, you can no longer climb the Temple of the Thousand Columns at Chichen Itza. All structures at El Tajin and most at Xochicalco are fenced off. Parts od Copan in Honduras are fenced off. If they keep this up, Greece and Turkey will win.
