Seaside

Greece, the land of Homer

Between the Ionian Sea and the Aegean Sea stretches the land that was formerly known as the Hellenic Republic: Greece. What lies behind this country? The answer to this apparently simple question cannot be unambiguous, as Greece is steeped in history, traditions and attractions. Surely, one is aware of the works of Homer, who made Ulysses one of his most courageous and remembered protagonists; or the democratic civilization of Athens or the fascination coming from myths and legends. But Greece is not only that. The landscape is characterized by typical white houses, turquoise sea, romantic sunsets and Mediterranean scents. It is no coincidence that the Greek islands are among the most popular seaside destinations in Europe. The Greek capital is Athens, a large metropolis, busy and alive, with a heat generated by intense human activity. Homeland of democracy born within the polis, home of Plato’s academy and Aristotle’s high school, which gave birth to thinkers and masters such as Socrates, Sophocles and Pericles, Athens is rich in historical and cultural attractions. Therefore, there are many places to visit, starting with the Acropolis.
