About 500 or so people live in the Valley, mostly those who work at the area’s resorts and parks.

Hottest Temperatures.

As far as major cities go, the capital and largest city in Greece, Athens, is also one of the hottest cities in the world.

Athens’ record hot temperature was a sweltering 48 degrees Celsius(118 Fahrenheit), recorded in 1977. In the 1970s, Athens had a serious smog problem that was not helped by the city’s intense heat. Environmental measures taken throughout the city have since reduced the problem, although the city still experiences bad smog in the hottest days of summer.

As most of the northern hemisphere is currently huddled under blankets and battling frigid temperatures, it might be hard to imagine any place on earth that could get colder than the subzero temperatures that many populated cities struggle with in the coldest months of the year. Yet, humans are remarkably adaptable and over the millennia have found ways to make do in some of the most extreme and inhospitable climates on earth. From fiery heat in the Sonoran Desert to extreme cold in Russia, Greenland and Canada, the following are some of the most inhospitable places (as far as temperature is concerned) where people carry on life, and have for centuries. Robust heaters or reliable air conditioners are definitely recommended in these places.
