Greece,
officially know as "The Hellenic Republic", is gifted
with a rich and fascinating cultural heritage having been part of
each of the great Empires - Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman - that
ruled the region. It is the southernmost country on the European
mainland with over 2000 islands scattered about the eastern Mediterranean
and Aegean Seas, of which roughly 200 are inhabited.
The
most popular destinations for most visitors to Greece is a starting
point in Athens and then on to the Cyclades islands of Mykonos,
Paros, Naxos and Santorini along with Crete, which is itself the
largest of the islands, and Rhodes. The Greek mainland, divided
into regions of the Peloponesse, Central, Thessaly, Epirus, Macedonia
and Thrace, also offers much to the visitor, especially those with
a keen interest in history and archaeology. Along with its picturesque
plains and 
mountains
important historical sights such as Delphi, Meteora, Olympia can
be explored. One of the most beautiful seaside towns, Naphlion,
is to be found in the Peloponesse along with the main international
port of Patras offering ferry connections to Italy.Whether
you wish to just simply relax on one or more of its many islands
to the soothing sounds of the sea or take a walk back in time through
history and discover its many treasures, Greece has something to
offer for everyone.
