| Synopsis: |
Broken into chapters by cities and areas (including Athens, the Pelopponese, Macedonia and the north, and both the popular and lesser known islands), this work 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 where to take a Greek language course, learn to cook Greek food on Crete, volunteer with the Hellenic Ornithological Society, meet winemakers, participate in a marble sculpture workshop on Tinos, make a tapestry-weaving, collect mushrooms in the Pindos Mountains 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 jewellery. |
