Greece has around 10,000 miles of coast and over 1,400 islands of which 169 are inhabited.
Greece has a rich cultural history. From the Ancient Gods, to the Minoans who settled in Crete, to the seat of democracy established in Athens, through Roman and Turkish occupation to the present day democracy, traces of Greece's history remain throughout the country: the Archaeological sites at the Acropolis, Delphi, Olympus and Knossos in Crete, Byzantine churches and monasteries, Venetian and Neoclassical architecture, even minarets and mosques.
