| Our next stop is Greece. I will introduce to you a historically, geologically and culturally rich place- Greece. Firstly, I will bring you to have a look at Greek's landscape. Greece is a land of rugged mountains, shady olive trees, more varieties of wildflowers than any other European country, and islands scattered like jewels across a brilliant blue sea. According to ancient mythology, in a war between gods, the Titans tore the tops from mountains, using them as weapons. The rocky peaks fell into the sea, thus creating the many islands of Greece. Mythology, history, and folklore have shaped the way people think in this ancient land; the land itself has shaped their way of life. Greece is divided into regions and island groups. The landscape, with its barren mountainside, 9,000-mile-long coastline, and many islands, has always shaped its people, the way they live, and the type of work they do. No one lives more than 60 miles from the sea. Because of the rugged terrain and dry, rocky soil, agriculture is restricted to one third of the land. |
