Located in southern Europe, Greece forms an irregular-shaped peninsula in the Mediterranean with two additional large peninsulas projecting from it: the Chalcidice and the Peloponnese. The Greek islands are generally subdivided into two groups, according to location: the Ionian Islands, including Corfu, Cephalonia, and Leucas, west of the mainland and the Aegean islands, including Euboea, Samos, Chios, Lesbos, and Crete to the east and south. North-central Greece, Epirus, and western Macedonia are all mountainous. Mount Olympus is the highest point in the country. Many first-time visitors arrive in Greece with specific images in mind and are surprised to discover a country with such regional and architectural diversity. The famous whitewashed homes and charming blue-domed churches only characterize a specific region of the country, the Cyclades Islands. Architecture varies greatly from one region to the next depending on the local history. Visitors will find neoclassical architecture in the cities of Ermoupolis and Nafplio, Ottoman-influenced buildings in Grevená and Kozáni, whitewashed Cycladic homes on the island of Paros, and pastel-colored baroque homes and churches on Corfu. The nation's terrain is just as varied as its architectural heritage: idyllic beaches, towering mountain ranges, wine-producing valleys, vast stretches of olive orchards in the south, and lush forests in the north. Greece's historical sights are just as varied; the country is littered with just as many medieval churches and castles as classical ruins and temples. Exploring the country by automobile can be a rewarding experience, allowing you to explore the incredibly scenic and varied terrain of the country’s coastlines, interior, and islands, at your convenience. If you want to rent a car in Greece, you can do it at major airports and cities.
