White houses against the dark blue sky, lonely donkeys in olive valleys, and ruined ancient temples in Athens - this is the Greece that everyone knows. Or thinks they know.
In this blend of antiquity and resort, there is something special,...
isn't there? Here, at every turn, you encounter great history and admire a vibrant present. Let’s open the "Polyglot" guide to Greece and quietly sit in a Greek café, enjoying strong coffee, contemplating the culture of Europe, which originated on this land, and the fate of Byzantium, with which we are historically connected by such strong ties, as we choose any of the 18 (!) routes offered by the guidebook. By the way, each of them is marked on a separate map-diagram. And for convenience, there’s also a huge map of all of Greece marked with the TOP-12 main attractions of the country. It is stored under the back flap of the book.
Even those who have been to Rhodes and Cyprus more than once will find the polyglot guide "Greece" useful. Lovers of measured relaxation will find here addresses of the best hotels for every taste, beaches, and restaurants! And those who prefer active recreation will appreciate the author's routes that help follow in the footsteps of Homeric heroes or the great Alexander the Great... And, of course, the authors did not forget the many pilgrims heading to this country!
You will find interesting information about the islands of the Aegean Sea and Peloponnese, Crete and Rhodes, Corfu, Peloponnese, and of course, about the capital of the state, Athens, and its surroundings.
In the guidebook "Greece", in addition to convenient maps and verified routes with descriptions of attractions, there is also practical information - useful links, addresses, museum opening hours, and public transport routes, maps to popular natural attractions and resorts.
In the guidebook "Greece", you will find
sections that will help you prepare for your trip. This includes a brief history of the state, information about transport (international and domestic), a calendar of upcoming events and holidays. The climate section will help you choose the best time for your journey, and information about hotels and restaurants will help you navigate the diverse offers.
Also, unique routes through the mainland and islands await you
