GREECE
Greece is a very beautiful and varied country. There are hundreds of islands (Crete is the largest one), thousands of coastlines and ports, and mountains and seas which all make for a very varied landscape. Because of the types of landscape that exist in Greece, outdoor pursuits are plentiful and extreme sports enthusiasts have a great time.

Delphi - Located about one hundred miles northwest of Athens, Delphi is considered by archeologists to be one of Greece's greatest cultural treasures. The complex includes the Temple of Apollo (home to the famous oracle) the sacred Corycian Cave and the Castalian Spring. Mycenae - Mycenae was the legendary home of the Atreides - victors in the Trojan War. Situated on a small hill- top on the lower slopes of Euboea Mountain north of Corinth, Mycenae has been inhabited since around 4000 BC and civilization flourished there until about 1350- 1200 BC. The ruins of ancient Mycenae are situated near the centre of modern day Mycenae. The town has a citadel housing the ruins of an Acropolis, a palace, Royal Tombs, Cyclopean Walls and the tomb of the Greek hero Agamemnon. The views from this ancient city are simply stunning. The Temple of Apollo, Andritsaina - This famous temple to the god of the sun and healing was built towards the middle of the 5th century B.C. in the lonely heights of the Arcadian mountains. It is the only nearly complete temple that survives and combines the Doric, Ionian and Corinthian architectural styles.

All over Greece you will be able to find shops and shopping centers where you can purchase a whole range of items from clothing to jewelry to CDs and videos. There are also many shops where you can purchase a fantastic selection of Greek Products, such wines, pottery, religious icons and embroidery. Athens, there is a fantastic selection of shops and places to go where you enjoy shopping all day long. Quite a lot of products in Greece are cheaper than other places in Europe and are also high in quality. For men and women's clothing, probably the best place would be in Ermou Street, which can be found just off Syntagma Square in the centre of Athens. Here there are many shops and boutiques where you can find both local tailored clothing as well as internationally known brands. If you are looking for souvenirs or gifts for friends or loved ones, the best place would be in Monastiraki, in the Plaka area of Central

Among the main dishes you will find moussaka, stuffed tomatoes, aubergines or paprika, giouvarlakia (meatballs with rice in white egg and lemon sauce), Dolmades (stuffed cabbage leaves), soutzoukakia (meatballs in red sauce), spaghetti Bolognese, and many meat dishes from chicken (kotopoulo) veal (moshari) and lamb (arni). The fish dishes are the best ones as Greece is a country surrounded by the sea and fishing is a main factor of the Greek agriculture.
