Of all the places  would like to travel, I want to go to Greece.  Why Greece?  Greece is the home of the Greek history.  I have grown a fascination to their legends of the gods as well.  My favorite Greek Olympian is Athena.  but there is more I like about the Greeks.  Their homes, the way that they're styled.   I hope one day to build my dream home like the ones in Greece.

  A view of Athens Acropolis. And a clear view of the Parthenon
 A town near the ever so blue ocean
A theatre that was used in ancient times


Here is a video of Greece and its culture.



Greece also has a lot of facts:
- The highest point is Mount Olympus, home of the gods and goddesses
- Their national holiday is March 25th
- In Greek mythology, there are 12 Olympians
- Greece held the 2004 Olympic Games

Here are the many places you can go see:
- Mount Athos
a mountain and peninsula in northern Greece.  The peninsula houses 1400 monks in 20 eastern orthodox monasteries
- Myastras
the capital in the 14th century now has breathtaking ruins
- Lindos
a medieval village on the island of Rhodes with cobblestone streets
- Parthenon
the temple in athens Acropolis. it served as a church, fortress, and temple

And there is always the price, because things are not cheap.  I assumed I would be going for 2 weeks.  It would be $3138.13 for a flight there and back and a 4-star hotel for 14 nights.
