From our guide to Greece
By day you look onto a bay of liquid turquoise, framed by the silver-green ripple of olive leaves. At dusk those blues and greens melt to lilacs and pinks...
In the face of European homogenisation, Greece has hung onto its quintessential humanity (hospitality to strangers, a propensity for face-to-face business) while embracing some of the more tourist-friendly innovations (road signs, proper breakfasts, western plumbing). Of course, things don't always go as planned – if they did, it wouldn't be Greece – but you get there in the end, and with a few extra memories to boot.
