The mountainous landform of Greece is very suitable for mountain climbing and cross-country driving. It is precisely because of the landform here that Greece has become one of the cheapest places to ski in Europe. The charming scenery and lake-like water surface of Aegean Sea provide perfect conditions for windsurfing, and it is also the most popular water sport in Greece. Freehand diving is very popular in coastal areas and is well worth a try. In order to prevent thieves from stealing underwater cultural relics, scuba diving is only legal under the sponsorship of diving schools (where there are many such schools). Water skiing is very popular on quite a few islands. Although backpackers disdain this, rowing is also a good way to visit Greek islands. Nothing is more pleasant than sailing on the vast sea and freely visiting remote and uninhabited islands. The monastery of Meteola is one of the most special scenic spots on the main island of Greece, located on the top of smooth rocks. In the early days, you had to disassemble and assemble the long ladder to climb the monastery. Later, monks pulled themselves up with a lever winch basket, and this method was always used in 1920. /kloc-At the end of 0/4, the Byzantine Empire went into decline, and monks went to these monasteries to escape the quiet and stay away from the bloody struggle. Quick-thinking tourists will ask: how long will it take to change a new rope? And the answer must be "God has his own plan". Now you can use the stone steps cut from the mountain road to go to the monastery, and the lever winch basket is only used to transport food supplies. Peloponnese, the southern peninsula of Greece, is rich in history and culture, with unique scenery. Some ancient sites gather in the northeast corner, including Epi Darus, Corinth and Mycenae. Mystras, a mysterious Byzantine city, is located on the hillside of Mount Teyetos. Walking through winding paths and steps, you will come to abandoned palaces and churches covered with murals. See Homer's historical and cultural sites in Crete and smell the fragrance of wild fennel and wild perilla. Crete, the largest island in Greece, receives a quarter of tourists from all over Greece every year. Although the north is overexploited, some peaceful journeys can still be found in the western and southern coastal areas and steep inland mountainous areas. Crete is the birthplace of Minos, the oldest and mysterious civilized world in Europe. Many museums in the capital, Leo, Iraq, have introduced the history of this island. You can also visit the ancient Crete civilization site in Knossos. There is a beautiful and ancient Wei 'an district in Chana. The snow-white walls, blue sky, green orchards, green fig trees and blue Aegean Sea of Dodd kanis Islands are just like the Dodd kanis Islands in heaven.

Corfu Island, Parsi Island, Lefkada Island, Kefalonia Island, Ithachi Island, Zakingsos Island, Kittila Island and other islands all have the flavor of Venice. In contrast, the Aegean Islands are just "deserts". Each island has its own unique culture and food, and British and other European flavors have left footprints on the island. Scenes that make you linger include temples halfway up the mountain, bell towers in Venice, villages with simple folk customs, ancient olive groves, famous wines, white beaches and seawater you don't believe in. Spola Islands, the four northern islands, have mountains, pines and cypresses, not a desert island. Skiasos, Sco Pelos, Alonosos and Skiros are all popular tourist areas, and they are expensive. People who go to Xiasos have beautiful beaches and wonderful nightlife. If you had no other purpose, you might have left long ago. Pailos is not as commercialized as Schiasos, but it is gradually repeating the same mistakes. Some beaches have roofs to keep out the sun, but most of them are stone beaches. Alonisos is still a quiet island, which may be because the rocky terrain is not suitable for building airport runways. The nearby waters have been declared as marine parks and the cleanest places in the Aegean Sea. Every household has a sewage treatment system, so garbage will not flow into the sea. Skiros is the least developed of the four. Most tour groups don't arrange tourists here, but people who think they are "different" will come. The northeastern islands of the Aegean Sea include Samos, Shios, Icaria, Lesvos, Lemnos, Samo Tracchi and Tassos. These islands are far apart, so it is not as easy to travel around them as it is in Clardy and Dodd kanis. The islands are vast and have their own characteristics. Pythagoras, philosopher and mathematician, was born in Samos. There is a humid climate and dense plants, and the hillside is covered with pine trees, fig trees and oak trees. Samothrace, shaped like an egg, was blessed. Under the towering Fengjiali Peak is a canyon. There are large areas of weather-beaten oak trees and buttonwood trees in the canyon, as well as dense olive trees and damp and dark woodlands. The gurgling water slowly flows into the bottomless pool. Ronicke Bay Archipelago, consisting of five islands, Ronicke Bay is closest to Athens, and Salamis is a suburb of Athens. The buildings and landforms of Egina Island, Hydra Island, Seth Island in speight and Polos Island are all different, which are popular places and expensive. Once a gathering place for artists, writers and romantics, Izra is now a popular holiday resort, but it still tries to maintain its lofty style. Motorcycles, including mopeds, have been banned on the island: it is purely donkey rule. Athens Athens is full of myths and historical traces, and with the strange people in coffee shops, pedestrian streets, parks, gardens and cities, it has become a very kind and dynamic city. If you knew what the Athenians were thinking, maybe you wouldn't dislike the smoke overhead. Today's tourists should thank the former Athenians for building so many outstanding buildings in the city. Compared with today's expanding metropolis, Athens in the past is insignificant. For the convenience of tourists and management, all the must-see attractions are concentrated in a rectangular area. Zagoria's rugged terrain and isolated environment have enabled Zagoria's villages to maintain a high degree of autonomy under Turkish rule, and its culture has thus flourished. Houses are made of stone slabs, with rugged and winding stone steps beside them. These small villages look like the world in Grimm's fairy tales. Gavzos Island extends southward from Crete to the Libyan Sea. Gavzos Island is the southernmost tip of Europe.

Santorini Island santorini Island is recognized as the most beautiful island in Greece. Thousands of people came to watch the volcanic vents filled with seawater, which may be the largest volcanic eruption in the world. The blue dome, the white wall and the black beach constitute an incredibly beautiful landscape. Some mythmakers believe that it was the volcanic eruption that formed this vent, which caused Atlantis to sink into the Atlantic Ocean. Violent volcanic eruptions, black beaches, houses destroyed by earthquakes and natural cliffs formed by lava falling into the sea can be seen everywhere. In the past few decades, volcanic activity has not been so strong, but there are still some small vibrations. Experts predict that the volcano will boil again one day. This kind is most suitable for people who like impermanence and ups and downs. For a deeper understanding of this island and its different historical background, you can go to the Megaron Gitz Museum, which records local events in the capital, Fila. Some photos illustrate the damage on the island after the 1956 earthquake. Thira Prehistoric Museum collects cultural relics excavated from Akrotiri site in the ancient city of Arquero. This ancient city was completely destroyed by volcanic eruption in BC 1650. Don't forget to look at the golden mountain sheep figurine, which dates back to17th century BC, but it was complete when it was discovered in 1999. Mani, located in the interior of Mani in the Peloponnesian Peninsula, is characterized by mottled bushes growing on the hills of gray rocks. Mani people claim to be direct descendants of Sparta. In those days, the brave Spartans would rather live in seclusion in the mountains than surrender to foreign rulers. In the past, Mani people were divided into tribes and led by chiefs. This social system has not ended until now. Due to the lack of fertile land and occasional * * *, every household has built a watchtower as a hiding place. In the eyes of today's Greeks, Mani people are headstrong right-wing royalists. Areo Polly, the capital of Mani, was named after Ares, the god of war. The alleys in the ancient city are covered with stones, and the towers stand magnificently in the city, looking very proud. The Dilos Cave 1 1 km south of the capital even extends to Sparta town, which was once the residence of Neolithic people. Visitors can take a boat and cross narrow tunnels and huge caves along hidden rivers, such as stalactites and stalagmites. Then go to the south, come to the barren mountainous area, and occasionally pass by some abandoned giant tower houses. Wasiya is the most distinctive traditional village here. Some tower buildings are located on towering rocks, and the shape of the tower is very similar to barnacles.
