Greece is a small country. It hangs precariously at the southern end of Europe where for five millennia has bridged east and west. In antiquity it was the pivot point around which commerce and ideas amalgamated into a civilization so unique that it still resonates with its influence today worldwide. It’s greatest legacy is that it’s ancient ideals became the foundation of the western world.
Greece’s unique cultural and historical background has sprinkled its landscape with ruins and scars that span six thousand years.
The alternating invaders, the peaceful settlers, and the country’s position at the crossroads between east and west, have all left their mark on the land and have become the playground of many a visitor.
