Greece-Santorini Island is one of the most popular places of the Cyclades islands. The reason is obvious: the landscapes of the island are considered to be of the most spectacular in the world. Imagine glimmering white painted villages standing on the highest point of cliffs that are about 300 meters high, offering breathtaking views.
Santorini island has also some beaches to offer, with black or red sand.Santorini island has also some beaches to offer, with black or red sand.
You can travel to Santorini by plane from most international airports via Athens. The flying time from Athens to Santorini is of 40 minutes. In the summer time, many charter flights fly directly from different cities of Europe to the island.
The Cycladic Islands are world-famous for their picturesque towns of cubic white-washed homes and blue-domed churches. Santoríni is especially famous for the towns of Firá and Oía, whose white and pastel-colored homes and churches-- seemingly stacked on top of each other-- are perched on the cliffs of the caldera. Many of these traditional homes are built on cliff-side caves, thus having a much larger interior than their exterior would suggest. The architecture of Santoríni's picturesque towns is typically Cycladic, but with strong neoclassical and baroque influences visible in many of the island's churches and public buildings.
