GREECE
Greece is made up of hundreds of islands that stretch across the Aegean towards the Turkish coast. Although the landscape can seem very bare, the huge number of archaeological sites from prehistoric times to medieval Byzantine, make up for the lack of greenery.
Greek literature's ancient heritage spans poetry, drama, philosophical and historical treatises, and travelogues. A thriving visual-arts scene exists, and traditional folk crafts such as embroidery, weaving and tapestry continue. Athens was of course the birthplace of the Olympics and Greek mythology is known worldwide. Greece can get incredibly hot in the summer and it is therefore a Mecca for tourists happy to 'hop' from one island to the next.
