Synopsis

This beautiful guide takes you to the best sites in Greece, from ancient Minoan ruins to Athens's newest neighborhoods. Replete with useful information and travel tips, it features cut-away illustrations of some of the country's famous structures (including exquisite depictions of the Acropolis and ancient Delphi), an array of detailed maps, and sumptuous photographs. Broken into chapters by cities and areas (including Athens, the Pelopponese, Macedonia and the north, and both the popular and lesser known islands), it also features a fascinating introduction to Greek history and culture. Special in-depth sidebars discuss Greek drama, the Olympic Games, the Battle of Crete, and much more; while guided tours include a walk in Rhodes' old town, a boat trip around Mount Athos, and a drive in northern Evvoia. An extensive travel planner details practicalities, including where to find the best tavernas and the finest gold jewelry.
