7 Nights "Greek Isles & Turkey"
On Board the Seven Seas Voyager
Piraeus (for Athens), GREECE — Piraeus is the gateway to the ancient
city of Athens, which is known as the "Cradle of Western Civilization"
because of its immense impact on cultural and political achievements
throughout the world. Due mainly to tourism and the 2004 Olympics,
Greece has redeveloped many sites in Athens. A historian's delight, Athens
is home to such magnificent wonders as Acropolis, the Parthenon, Plaka,
Temple of Olympian Zeus and Temple of Athena Nike.
Nafplio, GREECE — Named after the son of Poseidon, Nafplio is one of
Greece's most beautiful towns with narrow streets, elegant Venetian houses
and gracious neoclassical mansions. During the 13th century following
Byzantine rule, the Franks, Venetians and Turks took possession, each
leaving behind architectural monuments and traces of their cultural
heritage. During the 19th century, Nafplio became the capital for the
Greeks by Kapodistrias, the first governor of Greece.
Santorini, GREECE — With dramatic views of white houses clinging
perilously to the side of the caldera and stunning beaches of white and red
sand or black pebbles, it's no wonder Santorini may be the most
photographed scenery in the world. Between the 21st and 16th centuries
BC, the Minoans lived on the island, which was later flooded and preserved
under a blanket of volcanic ash. It is believed that the effects of the
volcano led indirectly to the collapse of the Minoan civilization.
Kusadasi, TURKEY — Originally a minor port, Kusadasi now serves as the
gateway to Ephesus, one of the ancient world's largest and most important
archaeological and religious sites. Just a half hour drive from the port,
Ephesus is where Christian preachers, including St. Paul and St. John,
often visited. St. John addresses this city in his Book of Revelation and
preached in the Theater of Ephesus. Even one of the Seven Wonders of
the Ancient World, the Temple of Artemis, is located here.
Rhodes, GREECE — The island of Rhodes is most renowned as the
site of the former Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of
the Ancient World. The statue was built as an offering of thanks to
Helios. The immense statue once straddled the harbor but was destroyed
by an earthquake. From the 12th to 16th centuries, the Knights of St.
John established a military base here. During their stay, they built
streets, houses, churches, and the famous Palace of the Grand Masters.
Mykonos, GREECE — Steeped in Greek mythological history, Mykonos
was named after Apollo's grandson, Mykons, and was the location of
the grand battle between Zeus and the Gigantes. Today, this
Cycladic island is one of Greece's most adored destinations due
to its picture- postcard setting and growing nightlife. Mykonos is a
superb example of Cycladic architecture, and by law even new
buildings have to be built in the same style of whitewashed, organic,
cube-like buildings.
Istanbul, TURKEY — Istanbul is literally where "East meets West,"
located on the narrow strait between the Black and Aegean Seas and
truly bridging Europe and Asia Minor. The city was founded by
Constantine the Great and the history of this capital dates back sixteen
centuries to the powerful Byzantine Empire. The most populous city in
Turkey, and one of the most in Europe, Istanbul is nicknamed "The
City on Seven Hills" because the oldest part of the city was built on
seven hills.
