Greece Virtual tour

Ancient Greece was the home of Zeus and his fellow gods and you will certainly be reminded of that when you visit Athens' Parthenon and Delphi's Temple of Apollo. Greece was also the birthplace of the Games. Other famous Greek births include science, math, philosophy and democracy. But modern Greece is less a center of learning and more of a destination of simple, happy pleasures. If you want to relax and unwind or socialize and make new friends, this is the country for you. Here you will find delicious food and wine, beautiful beaches, charming villages, an endless coastline and little islands full of surprises. The myriad of islands in the Aegean Sea offers you a unique chance for island-hopping and partying. The Greek people are very welcoming, and famous for their warm hospitality. The landscape of Greece is varied, ranging from cool mountainous regions and coastal hills to plains and sun-drenched, rocky islands.

Paradise On A Budget ~ How To Visit Greece And Get The Best From Your Dollar ~ by Janet Darbey - Greece is a wonderful place to visit. It has everything from undiscovered remote islands that are akin to paradise, to a huge bustling city that is full of tiny marble pavements and archaeological sites. The people are as friendly as you will find anywhere in the world, and even in the city of Athens the pace of life is laid back and rejuvenating. Dec./05

Traveling To North Western Greece ~ Discovering The Land Of Macedonia ~ by Marialena Lioulia - Since I’ve been living in the capital of Greece, Athens, for most of my life up until now, the chance of traveling to other parts of my country always seems like a good idea whenever I have the opportunity. The opportunity this time was the Greek Orthodox Easter Holiday at the end of April 2005: I wanted a first class getaway to the countryside. Jun/05

Athens, Greece

The Acropolis, situated on a great hill in the center of Athens, is also at the center of Western civilization. Here, in buildings like the inspiring Parthenon, Socrates, Plato and Aristotle contributed to the birth of modern thought some 2,400 years ago. A city of immense size has grown around these ruins, with the opportunity to see more fascinating antiquities in its many splendid museums. Acquire your own treasures in the form of distinctive Greek jewelry, and savor traditional Greek music and dance in the city's spirited nightspots.
