Greece has some of the most interesting architecture,
especially showcased in its churches. You can find beautifully detailed churches
peeking through the hills, in secluded spots among green landscapes, in the
middle of large squares, and amidst the picturesque quarters. Orthodox churches
are presented by their distinct dome-shaped architecture and the well-decorated
interiors with spectacular frescoes and holy icons. Each one will lure you with
its charm and character.
The style and design depend on the construction period
and the region of Greece. For example, the churches found in the Cyclades
Islands are whitewashed with blue painted domes, while churches in other areas
are decorated with earthy hues. The Venetian and Renaissance periods heavily
influence the churches located in the Ionian Islands while the mainland
churches date back from the Byzantine times.
You'd have a grand time exploring Greece! I'd love to
help you plan your trip, so be sure to pick up the phone and call me or send me
