GREECE

 The area of Greece is about 51,000 square miles (132,000 square kilometers). Because of its shape and the number of islands, Greece gives the impression of being smaller than its actual area. There are few countries where the meeting of land and sea creates such a complex pattern of islands, inlets, gulfs, and bays. The sea presses deep into the land with hundreds of arms separated by the rocky spines of peninsulas, and only a small, wedge-shaped portion is more than 50 miles (80 kilometers) from the sea. The contrasts between the deep blue of sea and sky, the white of limestone crags and whitewashed buildings, and the burnt-orange of tiled roofs contribute dramatically to what strikes all visitors a quality of light that is unique.
