Greece
is a southern European country surrounded by the Aegean Sea, Ionian
Sea, and the Mediterranean Sea. It lies between Albania and Turkey.
Summers in Greece are hot and dry, while winters are wet and quite
cold. Bluish green mountain ranges extending into the sea as peninsulas
or chains of islands add to the beauty of the terrain. Nearly 70% of
Greece is hilly, stony, and mountainous. The country consists of 9,841
islands, 114 of which are inhabited, and thus, it enjoys a coastline of
nearly 15,000 km! Ancient Greek culture facts help us know about the
world famous mythology of this country, which is, in fact, the
foundation block of the modern lifestyle.
