What cultural faux pas should I try to avoid making in Athens?

"It is important to be respectful of local customs and traditions when visiting Athens. It is considered rude to be overly loud or to show disrespect to the elderly. It is also important to dress modestly, especially when visiting religious sites. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the local laws and regulations, and to avoid any activities that may be considered illegal. Finally, it is important to be mindful of the local language and to avoid using slang or offensive language," said a member in Athens, Greece.
