Det är Greklands högsta berg och enligt myterna från det antika Grekland en hemvist för de tolv gudarna. Grekerna hoppas nu på att berget Olympos ska bli upptaget på Unesco:s världsarvslista senare denna månad.

Video Summary
AI GeneratedMount Olympus, the tallest mountain in Greece and the legendary home of the ancient Greek gods, is seeking designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Renowned for its immense cultural significance, biodiversity, and breathtaking natural beauty, the site aims to secure this global recognition during the World Heritage Committee meeting in Busan, South Korea.
Next, it's the tallest Greek mountain and the mythological home of 12 gods and legends
from ancient Greece.
Mount Olympus is in line with hopes to become a UNESCO World Heritage Site later this month.
The ancient Greeks believed the throne of Zeus, king of the gods, stood here on the
highest of its craggy, often mist-shrouded peaks.
Now, modern-day Greeks hope their tallest mountain will become a UNESCO World Heritage
Site.
Olympus is our life.
It is the place where we grew up.
It is the place we see every single day.
At the same time, it is a place that carries a myth, history, biodiversity, breathtaking
natural beauty, and immense cultural significance.
The mountain rises over 9,500 feet from a base practically at sea level.
The mythological home of the gods attract hikers and mountaineers from across the world.
It also hosts a wealth of flora and fauna, including endemic species.
It's my first time that I'm going up to Mount Olympus.
I'm very happy.
It's very beautiful.
And it's the mountain of the gods, so I hope that it's now the time to be a monument
for all the world, and it has to be in the UNESCO catalog.
The broader region of Mount Olympus tried for a listing in 2014 but was rejected.
This time, Greeks hope the mountain's culture and natural wonders will secure it a place.
The World Heritage Committee meets in Busan, South Korea in late July.
