Greece Attractions Athens - Athens ranks with Rome and Jerusalem for its glorious past, yet few fall in love with the modern city. Most visitors never see beyond the nefos (smog) and the high-rise apartment blocks built hurriedly to house the refugees who poured in from Asia Minor during the 1923 population exchange with Turkey. Corfu - Part of the Ionian chain, Corfu is one of the most beautiful Greek islands. In addition to its notorious nightlife, it has rich scenery, numerous cypress and olive groves, gorgeous water (ranging in tone from blue to green), rugged mountains, splendid hidden coves and miles of sandy beaches (the one at Paleokastritsa is the most scenic). Crete – The largest of all the Greek islands, it is one of the most diverse and enchanting regions of the country. Crete attracts an enormous number of visitors for a variety of reasons and with excellent beach resorts, rugged landscapes and picturesque towns it is easy to see why it is so popular. Delphi - Home of the ancient Oracle, Delphi was known in mythology as the "Navel of the Earth." Today, archaeologists consider it to be one of Greece's greatest cultural treasures. The ruins require at least half a day to visit. Among Delphi's treasures are the Castalia Spring, the theater, the Temple of Apollo (where the Oracle was) and the Arcade of the Athenians (columns in varying degrees of ruin). Rhodes - Only 20 mi/30 km from the Turkish coast, this island is very popular with both vacationers and cruise passengers for its lively nightlife, excellent beaches, flowers, hills and historical sites. The island has a fairly active artists' colony, and it's not uncommon to come across a painter at work.
