Best Greek island for: A photogenic and dramatic coastline.
Everyone knows the Venus de Milo (which has stood in the Louvre since the 19th century). Until recently, very few had heard of Milos, the volcanic island where Aphrodite’s graceful likeness was discovered. Those in the know jealously guard their treasured island, and especially its 70 (or more) beaches — surely the most diverse and dramatic coastline of all the Greek Islands.
Italy, a cradle of civilization and a hub of artistic expression, is adorned with an array of sculptures that beckon art enthusiasts from around the globe. From the grandeur of Michelangelo's David to the intricate beauty of Bernini's Apollo and Daphne, Italy's sculpture scene is a testament to the country's rich cultural heritage.
