Year of Gastronomy
INTRO
The island of Santorini proclaimed 2013 as the year of gastronomy recently.

Santorini is probably the best known Greek island.
It's famous for the unique view of the sun dipping into the azure waters of the largest volcanic caldera in the world.
Now the local administration and businessmen involved in the tourism industry aim to make Santorini a gastronomy destination.
The municipality of Thira recently initiated a campaign with the theme 2013, Year of Gastronomy in Santorini.
According to the mayor, the local products have created the advantages for the island to become one of the top gastronomic destinations.

I think that the identity of every region in the world includes also the local production of agricultural and livestock products. The island of Santorini was formed after an enormous volcanic explosion in the middle of the Aegean Sea. The soil of the island is volcanic and it cannot hold water. The crops are growing by absorbing water through their leaves, so that gives them a very intense flavor.
He added some of the products are complemented by three to four varietals of white wines.
The logo of the campaign was inspired from the image of a jug from the 17th century BC that was discovered recently near Akrotiri.
It presents a man pouring wine into a container held by another man.
According to the archaeologist, it is proof that gastronomy held a high place in the ceremonies of the ancient inhabitants of the island.
SOUNDBITE(GREEK) NIKOS ZORZOS, Mayor of Thira
For the natural and built environment. Both are the result of the great eruption of the volcano. The built environment was created by the materials of the eruption. The compact and soft ground allowed the people to build the cave houses. Santorini has a wonderful folk architecture and a wonderful natural environment, the largest caldera in the world and so it is a unique island.
According to Zorzos, a series of events associated with the products of Santorini and the history of the island will be running throughout the year.
Just as Zorzos mentioned, a big number of tourists from China are visiting Santorini every year.
SOUNDBITE(GREEK) NIKOS ZORZOS, Mayor of Thira
I don't have the exact number, but the Chinese who visit Santorini are a lot. They are very interested in the culture and the habits of the locals and enhance our efforts to extend the tourist period.
