Overview:
With over a hundred inhabited islands and a
territory that stretches from the south Aegean
to the Balkan countries, Greece offers enough to
fill months of travel. The historic sites span
four millennia, encompassing both the legendary
and the obscure, where a visit can still seem
like a personal discovery. Beaches are parceled
out along a convoluted coastline equal to
France's in length, and islands range from
backwaters where the boat calls twice a week to
resorts as cosmopolitan as any in the
Mediterranean.
Of course there are
formal cultural activities as well: museums that
shouldn't be missed, magnificent medieval
mansions and castles , as well as the great
ancient sites dating from the Neolithic, Bronze
Age, Minoan, Classical, Hellenistic, Roman and
Byzantine eras. Greece hosts some excellent
festivals too, bringing international
theatre, dance and musical groups to perform in
ancient theatres, as well as castle courtyards
and more contemporary venues in coastal and
island resorts.
Greece offers something spectacular for
everyone!...Discover Greece with...
