Lonely planet greece
Today we bring you the definitive guide if you are planning to travel to Greece in 2021. And the fact is that the Hellenic country is the most recommended destination if you are looking for the perfect mix of historical sites, beaches and gastronomy.
The truth is that it is not an easy task to summarize in a few paragraphs the history of a country that is defined as “the cradle of Western civilization”. And it is to Greece that we owe central themes in our society such as democracy, philosophy or theater. But we do believe that before traveling to this country it is important to know how to place it in a historical context.
The two most important civilizations of ancient Greece were the Minoan, which arose on the island of Crete, and the Mycenaean, which was brought by the Achaeans, an Indo-European people who settled in the Peloponnese peninsula.
However, it was during the Archaic period (VIII B.C.-VI B.C.) when the Greek cities (polis) and the most characteristic features of their identity developed. The period of maximum political, economic and cultural splendor was reached during the Classical Period. During this period, the Century of Pericles (V B.C.) took place, when the Parthenon and other symbols of Athens were built. In addition, also in this stage the theater reached its greatest apogee.
The best islands in Greece
Greece, sheltered in the eastern Mediterranean, is made up of a peninsula of rugged coasts and some 2,000 islands, although less than 200 of them are inhabited. The names of its regions and geographical features – Macedonia, Thrace, Thessaly, Attica or the Peloponnese – evoke a mythical and glorious past. The highest peak is Mount Olympus, whose summit is often hidden by clouds and mists from the sea, hence the fantasy of the ancient Greeks to place the abode of the gods there. Athens, the somewhat chaotic and noisy capital, crowned by the ruins of the Acropolis, is an essential stop for fans of archeology and ancient art, who find everywhere memories of the formidable polis that was and extraordinary masterpieces in its museums.
The lack of railway communications is compensated by a good network of local and long-distance bus lines. If you prefer to drive, you can rent a car in the main tourist towns and at the airports. It has become customary for many travelers to rent motorcycles to move freely around the islands, or simply to find a different beach every day.

The choice becomes increasingly difficult to know all the possibilities offered by these seas.
