Greece stands out as tourist destiny by its beaches and their history. The lovers of the sea will find in Greece paradises true: the peninsula of Casandra, in the region of Macedonian, with its forests of pines, interminable white sand beaches and crystalline waters; the gulf of Volos, point of contact of the Pelión mount (Pilion) with the sea, where mountain, forests, beaches and sea are combined to give rise to a dream landscape; the coast of the Peloponeso between Pilos and Kiparisia, with its beautiful beaches on the sea Jónico; the island of Milos (one of the Cícladas), with its colorful beaches and their mountains; and the island of Corfú (Kerkira or Kerkyra), that reunites numerous beaches, many of virgin them.
Who wish to visit historical sites will be overflowed by the superabundance of places of highest value, among them: the temple of Apolo in Delfos; Olimpia (it cradles of the Olympic games); the walls of Micenas; and the Acropolis of Athens.
A special case constitutes the sagrada region of the Athos mount, in the peninsula of Halkidiki, because this one is the only monástico state of the world, with 1,000 distributed orthodox monks in 20 monasteries; to her the women have prohibited the access and men moved by a religious restlessness or of investigation only can arrive. |
