Synopsis:

The guide that shows you what other travel books only tell you!

Beyond its mainland, Greece includes more than 2,000 islands, large and small, and DK's Eyewitness Travel Guide; The Greek Islands is the first step to take before visiting these scenic wonders. With more than 750 full-color photographs, this encyclopedic handbook divides these remarkable islands into seven regional chapters, each focusing on the main towns and villages, with 3-D aerial maps directing you to all the main sights. Visit the Palace of St. Michael and St. George, the Old Fortress, and the Paper Money Museum on the island of Corfu in the Ionic Islands. Travel to the Temple of Aphaia on Aigina in the Argo-Saronic Islands and to the Palace of the Grand Masters and the Street of Knights on Rhodes in the Dodecanse chain. From hilly terrain to sun-drenched beaches, from historical significance to classic cuisine, the best of the Greek Islands are encapsulated in this entertaining and educational travel guide.
