About Greece

Above Athens stands the Acropolis, a rocky hill crowned by the Parthenon, the temple built for the goddess Athena in the fifth century BC. Beside it you will find the Erechtheion with its six stone maidens, the Caryatids, and the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, a Roman theatre still used for concerts. Below the hill, the narrow lanes of Plaka are the oldest neighbourhood of the city.

Santorini is the rim of a volcano that erupted about 3,600 years ago. Its village of Oia is known for white houses and blue-domed churches perched above the flooded crater.

The places of the Greek myths are here too: Delphi, where Apollo’s oracle spoke at the centre of the world; the Lion Gate of Mycenae, city of King Agamemnon; the palace of Knossos on Crete, home of the legend of the Minotaur; the Temple of Poseidon on the cliffs of Cape Sounion; the island of Delos, where Apollo and Artemis were born; and the theatre of Epidaurus. In Athens, the Temple of Hephaestus is one of the best preserved Greek temples anywhere.

At Olympia, where the ancient Olympic Games were held, the Temple of Zeus once housed one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. On Rhodes, bronze deer guard Mandraki Harbour, where the Colossus may once have stood, below the walls of the medieval Old Town.
