    Greece overview

    Ancient Greece is the birthplace of democracy, philosophy and the arts, which are still studied today at universities around the world. Greek influence spread across the world under Alexander the Great before Greece became part of the Roman Empire, the Byzantine Empire and the Ottoman Empire, until gaining independence once more in the 19th century.  

    Greek culture is inextricably linked to its rich history. Ancient Greece produced some of the most influential philosophers in history including Socrates, Plato and Aristotle. Greek literature, such as Homer’s Iliad and The Odyssey, is still studied today. The art and architecture of Greece also has worldwide renown – iconic structures like the Parthenon and statues like the Venus de Milo are still a major influence to today’s artists and architects. 

    Greece is also well known for the traditional music and folk dances like the syrtos and hasapiko, which are often danced at celebratory occasions. 

      

    What to eat

    Greek cuisine focuses on local produce and Mediterranean flavours, with olive oil a cornerstone of their cooking. Enjoy the simplicity of a Greek salad, full of flavour from locally sourced ingredients. Delight in grilled seafood such as local fish, calamari, octopus and prawns, seasoned with lemon, oregano and garlic. Relish the meat dishes like moussaka and souvlaki (skewered meat), served with pita bread, vegetables and tzatziki sauce.
