Santorini, Greece

According to Greek mythology, Santorini was a handful of dirt that Sea God Triton gave to the Argonauts. They named it Kallisti, the most beautiful one. The island, situated in the southern Aregian Sea of Greece, stands true to its name to date. A moving landscape of multicolored cliffs, sea drowned caldera, and vast spread of clear blue waters greet you at Santorini. Snow drift of white Cycladic houses lining the white streets of the white town, have a view so magnificent that can totally take your breath away. The scenic beauty of front row sunsets on clifftops in the mid of a quiet breeze looks as if drawn carefully on a canvas by an artist. Tourists flock in large numbers to experience the enthralling calmness of this inky island every year.
Santorini, Greece

As Walt Disney has rightly remarked. “Landscapes of great wonder and beauty lie under our feet and all around us. They are discovered in tunnels in the ground, the heart of flowers, the hollows of trees, fresh-water ponds, seaweed jungles between tides, and even drops of water. Life in these hidden worlds is more startling in reality than anything we can imagine. How could this earth of ours, which is only a speck in the heavens, have so much variety of life, so many curious and exciting creatures?”  Free yourself from shackles of your life and rejoice the music of Earth with a visit to its paradise.
