Crete,a Greek Island near to Athens
Crete is the largest island in Greece and the fifth largest island in the Mediterranean Sea. It is located in the southern part of the Aegean Sea separating the Aegean from the Libyan Sea.Crete is the largest and most populous of the Greek islands and the fifth-largest island in the Mediterranean Sea, after Sicily, Sardinia, Cyprus, and Corsica.
Crete is a mountainous island with natural harbors. There are signs of earthquake damage at many Minoan sites, and clear signs of land uplifting and submersion of coastal sites due to tectonic processes along its coast.

Main article: Cities of Greece
Heraklion is the largest city and capital of Crete. The principal cities are:
Heraklion (Iraklion or Candia) (173,993 inhabitants)[20]
Chania (Haniá) (108,642 inhabitants)[20]
Rethymno (34,300 inhabitants)[20]
Ierapetra (23,707 inhabitants)
Agios Nikolaos (19,462 inhabitants)
Sitia (14,338 inhabitants)
The island has three significant airports, Nikos Kazantzakis at Heraklion, the Daskalogiannis airport at Chania and a smaller one in SitiaThe island is well served by ferries, mostly from Athens, by ferry companies .
Crete is one of the most popular holiday destinations in Greece. Fifteen percent of all arrivals in Greece come through the city of Heraklion (port and airport)
Archaeological sites and museums---
There is a large number of archaeological sites which include the Minoan sites of Knossos, Malia,, Petras, and Phaistos, the classical site of Gortys,
Crete forms a significant part of the economy and cultural heritage of Greece, while retaining its own local cultural traits (such as its own poetry and music). It was once the centre of the Minoan civilization (c. 2700–1420 BC), which is currently regarded as the earliest recorded civilization in Europe.[
The Minoan civilization was an Aegean Bronze Age civilization on the island of Crete and other Aegean islands.
The term Minoan, which refers to the mythical King Minos, originally described the pottery of the period. Minos was associated in Greek mythology with the labyrinth and the Minotaur, which Evans identified with the site at Knossos (the largest Minoan site). According to Homer, Crete once had 90 cities.
Knossos is the largest Bronze Age archaeological site on Crete and has been called Europe's oldest city
The name Knossos survives from ancient Greek references to the major city of Crete. The identification of Knossos with the Bronze Age site is supported by tradition and by the Roman coins that were scattered over the fields surrounding the pre-excavation site, then a large mound named Kephala Hill, elevation 85 m (279 ft) from current sea level. Many of them were inscribed with Knosion or Knos on the obverse and an image of a Minotaur or Labyrinth on the reverse, both symbols deriving from the myth of King Minos, supposed to have reigned from Knossos.[
The excavations in Knossos began in AD 1900 by the English archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans (1851–1941) and his team, and they continued for 35 years. The palace was excavated and partially restored under the direction of Arthur Evans in the earliest years of the 20th century.
The palace of Knossos was undoubtedly the ceremonial and political centre of the Minoan civilization and culture. It appears as a maze of workrooms, living spaces, and storerooms close to a central square
According to Greek Mythology, The Psychro cave at Mount Dikti was the birthplace of the god Zeus.

Arranging theme trips :
The New Odyssey organises theme trips intended for groups of no more than 14 travellers.

- slow tourism (taking one's time to explore little by little (siga-siga in Greek)).
Indeed, when you have no group to catch up with and there is no rush for you to get to your next destination, why not let yourself forget time for a while and indulge in sunset watching, enjoy a laid-back chat with locals, or just get some rest?

Visit of Cyrene & Slonta (Libya)
Cyrene, the ancient Greek city (in present-day Libya) was the oldest and most important of the five Greek cities in the region and gave eastern Libya the classical name 'Cyrenaica' that it has retained to modern times. It lies in a lush valley in the Jebel Akhdar uplands. It was named after a spring, Kyre, which the Greeks consecrated to Apollo.
Cyrene was founded as a colony of the Greeks of Thera, traditionally led by Aristotle (later called Battus) of Thera, about 630 BC, ten miles from its port, Apollonia (Marsa Sousa). Details concerning the founding of the city are contained in Book IV of the Histories of Herodotus. It promptly became the chief town of the ancient Libyan region between Egypt and Carthage (Cyrenaica), kept up commercial relations with all the Greek cities, and reached the height of its prosperity under its own kings in the 5th century BC. Soon after 460 BC it became a republic; after the death of Alexander the Great (323 BC) it passed to the Ptolemies and fell into decay.
Cyrenaica became part of the empire controlled by the Ptolemaic dynasty from Alexandria in Egypt and later passed to the Roman empire. Cyrene was the birthplace of Eratosthenes and there are a number of philosophers associated with the city including Callimachus, Carneades, Aristippus and Arete, and Synesius, bishop of Ptolemais in the 4th century CE.
The inhabitants of Cyrene at the time of Sulla (c. 85 BC) were divided into four classes: citizens, farmers, resident aliens, and Jews, who formed a restless minority. Lucullus was sent to Cyrene by Sulla to quell disturbances in which the Jews were taking a prominent part. The ruler of the town, Apion bequeathed it to the Romans, but it kept its self-government. In 74 BC Cyrene was created a Roman province; but, whereas under the Ptolemies the Jewish inhabitants had enjoyed equal rights, they now considered themselves oppressed by the autonomous Greek population. Cultural conflicts were exacerbated by the resurgence of Jewish nationalism and resentment of Hellenistic culture with which many Jews had accommodated. Tensions came to a head in the insurrection of the Jews of Cyrene under Vespasian (AD 73) and especially Trajan (AD 117). This revolt was quelled by Marcius Turbo, but not before about 200,000 Romans and Greeks had been killed (Dio Cassius, lxviii. 32). By this outbreak Libya was depopulated to such an extent that a few years later new colonies had to be established there, according to Eusebius.
Cyrene's chief local export through much of its early history -- the medicinal herb silphium -- was pictured on most Cyrenian coins, until it was harvested to extinction. Though commercial competition from Carthage and Alexandria reduced its trade, Cyrene, with its port of Apollonia (Marsa Susa), remained an important urban center until the earthquake of 365. Ammianus Marcellinus described it in the 4th century as a deserted city, and Synesius, a native of Cyrene, described it in the following century as a vast ruin at the mercy of the nomads.
The names of six christian bishops are known: according to Byzantine legend the first was St. Lucius (Acts 13:1); St. Theodorus suffered martyrdom under Diocletian; about 370 Philo dared to consecrate by himself a bishop for Hydra, and was succeeded by his own nephew, Philo; Rufus sided with Dioscorus at the so-called Robber Synod (Latrocinium) of Ephesus in 449; Leontius lived about 600.
Cyrene is now an archeological site near the village of Shahat. One of its more significant features is the Temple of Apollo which was originally constructed as early as 7th century BC. Other ancient structures include a Temple to Demeter and a partially unexcavated Temple to Zeus (the latter was intentionally damaged under orders of Moammar Al Qadhafi in the summer of 1978). There is a large necropolis approximately 10 km between Cyrene and its ancient port of Apollonia.
Cyrene is also mentioned in the New Testament: One Simon of Cyrene carried the cross of Christ (Mark 15:21 and parallels). See also Acts 2:10, 6:9; 11:20; 13:1.
(wikipedia)
Slonta : The little temple near the village of Slotna is beautiful, but little has been done to meet an audience. What kind of cult was practiced here in the temple, is unknown today.

Illegal Diamond Trade Flourishes in Angola (1996)
Dirty Diamonds (1996): Angola boasts the most dangerous and illegal diamond mines in the world.
Subscribe to Journeyman here:
Synopsis: From an aerial view, hundreds of men dot the crater ridden landscape. In small groups, bare chested, knee deep in murky water, they sieve gravel for hours until they spot the glitter of one tiny diamond. In town, we interview an illegal trader who compares diamond dealing to the blood diamond trade in a warzone. He takes out a small paper package from his trouser leg and slowly unwraps a cluster of uncut jewels. He carries them to bribe his way out of any difficult situations. The De Beers diamond cartel is keen to stop the illegal diamond trade. A spokesman maintains that most of Angola's diamonds are smuggled out the country and are therefore denied to the people of Angola. We would like to develop a first class diamond field and build a proper mining operation. In this way the country can be further developed. Local mining companies depend on private security firms to guarantee their safety. While filming, bandits with grenade launchers and machine guns take our reporter by surprise. After much bargaining, she is finally allowed to leave the area.

Bikini Tourism in Greek Islands
Free video about bikini tourists. This free video was created for you by and can be used for free under the creative commons license with the attribution of epSos.de as the original author of this bikini tourists video.
Thank you for supporting the creative commons movement !!
bikini Tourism is the most important job creator and one of the main sources of income in Greece. The current year is expected to be a record year, predicts Andreas Andreadis, head of the Greek bikini tourist Association. Greece is back in fashion. This is good news, he says. Everywhere I hear: This year we are going to Greece This is really very good for the country and its economy.. Greece has experienced a steep decline in bikini Tourism in the outbreak of the financial crisis, the resulting social unrest and massive protests.
The more bikini tourists they have, the more will help them. This is a very European country. Much of our history comes from Greece. It belongs to Europe, he says. In Greece, since 1929, the EOT operates (Greek National bikini Tourism Organisation) win a semi-governmental organization that foreigners from all over the world in Greece wants. But we can not say that today, according to the conditions and natural beauties of Greece, the travel enough. This is because, apart from the major bikini tourist centers, especially in some Greek islands such as Rhodes, Crete, Corfu, Mykonos and Santorini, there is not always comfortable and first class hotels and good road infrastructure. The efforts resulted from the EOT is the enormous increase in the number of foreign bikini tourists in Greece. Greece can also show much beauty to bikini tourists.
It has many natural attractions throughout the year. It has many unique value and Antiques in Athens, Olympia, Delphi, Mount Athos, Meteora, Thessaloniki. Ski resorts in the mountains of Greece, beautiful beaches on the mainland and the Greek islands, caves, castles, dive sites, marine parks, many spas, hiking and summer festivals in many places. There are also many local festivals and fairs, characteristic of Greece and have great bikini tourist attraction. Every bikini tourist activity helps people to learn and connect with each other.
Greece is known for its wonderful barren landscape, its pristine treasures, the endless coast beaches and its 6,000 islands and islets, which are famous for their incomparable beauty in the world. The figures rose from 14 million international visitors in 2004 to over 19 million visitors in 2009 and it is expected to be in a few years to reach 20 million, nearly double the population. Beyond the sea and sun bikini Tourism forms a significant part of the identity of Greece, the present and the future.
The new bikini tourists are less interested in the mountain of the gods or other ancient attractions. You want to have fun - and tidy go shopping. For example, in the many fur shops of the seaside resort Paralia. Although the Russians give in their travels through Greece not quite as much money as overseas bikini tourists from the United States and New Zealand. For one or another oligarch not only a double room rents: He buys the same throughout the hotel.
Ancient Greece has decisively shaped the arts, languages, philosophy, politics, and sports of western culture. Furthermore, Greece is an attractive destination with a mountainous inland and idyllic beaches and islands. Since 1981, Greece is a member state of the European Union. Particularly attractive bikini tourist destinations in Greece Cyclades Islands Santorini with the popular, Paros, Mykonos, etc. as well as the island of Crete. Attractive is also the Peloponnese in the Gulf of Corinth and in the south (Mani).
The tertiary sector is the largest and most important economic sector in Greece.At the core of this case are the bikini Tourism industry, the trade, the vessel traffic and financial services. During the trading, the bikini Tourism industry and the shipping companies have always played a special position in the Greek economy, the financial services developed only after the liberalization of the banking sector in Greece and today play an important role in investment both in Greece and in Southeastern Europe. The Greek shipping internationally has a very high priority and served with 3,618 Greek-controlled ships 18.6% of the global shipping. Bikini Tourism contributes even with 10% to the economic performance of the country in, but its importance decreases as opposed to shipping, which has stable growth rates in consumption crises. Furthermore, Greek shipowners have one of the largest fleets owners, but mostly on flags flagged out are.
