When we say Greece, images of islands, beaches and ruins immediately come to mind. It is the general idea of this beautiful country in Europe, and it is true, but I always say that Greece is much more and that one should take more than one trip to get to know it. How nice it would be to be able to visit «From pa to pa»A whole country!
For example, in Greece there are volcanoes. Greece is located in the well-known arc of volcanoes that was formed millions of years ago when the African plate sank under the Eurasian. This arc of volcanoes used to be very active and such activity has given present-day Greece spectacular landscapes throughout its geography.
The greek volcanoes most important are in Santorini, in Milos, in Nysiros and in Methana. There are also in Kos and Gyali, although they are not the most popular. It is the volcanoes of Santorini and Milos that receive the most tourism for the beauty of their landscapes. Sanorini's caldera is priceless and the largest in the world so imagine: it is 300 meters high and has a diameter of 11 kilometers.
Another of the largest boilers in the world is the Nisyros volcano: It is about 650 meters high and is 3 meters in diameter. At the same time it is one of the youngest volcanoes in the country. This volcano erupted in the 1888th century and later in the XNUMXth century. Then a six to seven meter crater was formed and a lake with hot and salty water was born. Then there was a last eruption in XNUMX and it kept changing shape.
