A truth about Greece is that if あなた decide to travel there, あなた 'll have a hard time choosing where to go. The big deal about Greece is not her islands または ancient statues, but a huge diversity which combines all of these and many もっと見る in a small country. So I'll 一覧 all the regions in Greece with a little information for tourists :)


Greek Mainland
Greek mainland consists of these regions: Thrace, Macedonia, Epirus, Thessaly, Central Greece and Peloponnese.

1. Thrace is an ideal place for agrotourism. There are many fields, rivers, valleys and forests there. Also Xanthi City is famous for its Carnival.
2. Macedonia lies in the northern part of the country, so it's a great place to visit in the winter. Snow, mountains, the dreamy Valia Calda, wildlife, cities on hills and near beautiful lakes. Also it's a place for history 恋愛中 because the whole region is full of ancient cities and theaters and of course the royal tombs, including Philip's, father of Alexander the Great. In Macedonia there is the 秒 largest city in Greece, Thessaloniki, famous for its romantic atmosphere and a great number of medieval and byzantine monuments.
3. Epirus is extremely mountainous, it consists of some of the most beautiful nature destinations in Greece. Deep gorges, river canyons, secret paths through dense forests and caves, picturesque traditional villages and towns. It's ideal for those who seek adventurous holidays as long as ancient and later greek monuments.
4.Thessaly has it all, be it exotic and breathtaking beaches and big modern cities, または alpine mountains,lakes, and wide fields. Most important, it's where あなた can see Meteora, the famous giant rocks that look as if they are hunging in the air.
5.Central Greece. Athens is a huge city and it has EVERYTHING. It's too crowded, a lot of traffic ジャム and the center sometimes is a mess. BUT it has the most spectacular ancient greek monuments, the best museums, an oasis for shopping and fashion, other outstanding features (like the プラネタリウム which is the largest in ヨーロッパ and America) and an extremely active nightlife. But if あなた 're もっと見る into naturally beautiful and picturesque cities, there's a whole bunch of greek cities which are better for you. Apart from Athens, Central Greece has peaceful, typically Greek villages, Ski resorts,mountainous areas and...many celebrities!
6.Apart from being very beautiful, Peloponnese carries a glorious history too. Amazing ancient greek theaters like the famous Epidaurus, ancient cities and tombs, but also stunning monuments of the byzantine era as well as of the Greek Independence War(e.g Monemvasia, Mistras). The beaches are fantastic and there あなた can find one of the most beautiful greek cities, Nafplio.


Now the islands
The Greek islands are so many that they are categorized in groups. These are: Islands of Northern and Eastern Aegean Sea, Sporades, Cyclades, Euboea, Islands of Argosaronikos, Dodecanese, Crete and Ionian islands または Eptanisa.

1. Islands of Northern and Eastern Aegean Sea are usually large and have many cultural sights that are worth visiting. Sometimes they remind of the greek mainland. Unusual natural sights can be seen there too(like the desert in Lemnos). Beautiful towns.
2.Sporades have some great beaches and they are full of forests. Skiathos island gains もっと見る and もっと見る celebrity attention the last years, while Alonnisos is great for those interested in wildlife and enviroment protection.
3.Cyclades are the most famous Greek islands. Islands like Santorini and Mykonos belong to them. Here あなた will see the most typical greek houses, white with blue roofs. These islands are huge black rocks, the trees are too few and the winds are strong. Their beauty is wild and unique. Don't go to Mykonos if あなた don't like extreme nightlife and too expensive services. If あなた want to see weird, uncommon but breathtaking 閲覧数 try Milos, which looks as if あなた are on the Moon. If あなた seek wonderful beaches, go to the smaller and less famous islands.If あなた like European city style, go to Syros. As for Santorini, it's true that no place in the world looks like it. But I suggest あなた go there when あなた are in a 愛 affair!
4.Euboea is the 秒 largest island in Greece. It has beautiful large cities and あなた can go there through a big bridge which unites it with the mainland. Ideal for tranquil and relaxing holidays.
5.Islands of Argosaronikos are close to Athens and are considered as aristocratic, because they have always been a お気に入り destination for artists and aristocrats. The islands have many beautiful buildings, carriages with 馬 etc. In Hydra island there are no cars at all.You can only rent a donkey!
6. Dodecanese look a bit like Cyclades, with the difference that there is actually plant life there. The weather is hot, the 閲覧数 are beautiful and romantic. These islands are great for peaceful relaxing. Plus Rhodes island belongs to them...Enough said.Seriously what can I say about Rhodes?The deers in the port,the Medieval 城 of the Knights, the valley of the butterflies,the beaches??Anyway.
7.Crete is the largest island and the お気に入り destination even for most Greeks. It's so big that あなた shouldn't visit unless あなた plan to stay over a week. Large gorgeous and lively cities, mountains, ancient minoan monuments like Knossos, extraordinary beaches and a lot of tradition kept alive. Some people there keep dressing, speaking and behaving traditionally. 食 is exceptional.
8.The Ionian islands is the place where あなた find the greatest shade of blue there is. At least in my opinion. Some of the best beaches in the world and gorgeous cities with an old european feel (e.g Corfu).

So this was it. Excuse me for the length of this article, I tried my best to shorten it as much as I could! Anyway, I hope that if あなた ever decide to travel to Greece,this will help あなた a bit to decide what is best for you.
