00:46Number 10, Corfu.
00:49We're starting our countdown with the gorgeous island of Corfu.
00:53Located off Greece's northwest coast in the Ionian Islands chain, Corfu dazzles with emerald hills, pastel villages, quiet coves, and the grand French chateaus.
01:02Beyond enjoying beach days on sandy coasts, make your way on winding roads to charming old-town Corfu town for Venetian fortresses and an evening promenade known as the Spianata.
01:12Number 9, Athens Riviera.
01:15Heading back to the mainland, the Athens Riviera along the Attic coastline offers an easy escape with its sandy blue-flag beaches and stylish beach towns less than an hour from the capital city.
01:25Soak up a lively yet relaxed vibe as you island hop to spots like Sheikouli Agmeni in Cape Sunia where the iconic Temple of Poseidon perches above sparkling seas.
01:34Number 8, Thessaloniki.
01:37Venture north now to Greece's second-largest city Thessaloniki.
01:41Thriving with eclectic dining and a creative urban vibe, this vibrant metropolis still retains fascinating roots as an ancient port city under Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman rule.
01:51A stroll along Thessaloniki's waterfront reveals layers of eras and attractions from the iconic White Tower to Byzantine churches dotted amid a modern cityscape.
02:00Number 7, Halkidiki.
02:03Continuing north we have the three-pronged peninsula of Halkidiki, an enchanting stretch of pine forests, tranquil coves, and the iconic monastic community above cliffs in Mount Athos.
02:13Base yourself in charming villages like Nikiti and Neapodidia as you explore idyllic beaches along the peninsula's fingers culminating in Imtiathos, the Eastern Orthodox monastic republic renowned as a meeting place of heaven and earth.
02:26Number 6, Crete.
02:28As Greece's largest island, Crete astounds with imposing Sumerian gorge, the Palace of Knossos, and landscapes that shift from Venetian ports to rustic villages where age-old customs thrive.
02:39After getting lost among vestiges of lost civilizations in Crete's storied past, spend your days at some of Greece's most glorious beaches like Elefonissi, famed for pink sand shores that dissolve into a turquoise lagoon.
02:51Number 5, Santorini.
02:54And now, the one island that needs no introduction, Santorini.
02:58Recognized by its whitewashed villages that cascade down volcanic cliffs towards sapphire blue waters, Santorini's sublime sunset views have made it a coveted bucket list destination and one of Greece's great natural wonders.
03:10Step back into ancient history at Akrotiri village, discovered in the 1860s following a massive volcano eruption that shaped Santorini's dramatic landscapes.
03:19Number 4, Peloponnese Peninsula.
03:23At number 4 we dive into the treasure trove Peloponnese Peninsula.
03:27Get a taste of ancient history in ruins like Olympia and Epidaurus, then fast forward to the Middle Ages as you weave through stone villages to the imposing citadel in Monembesia.
03:37Or escape into the lush wilderness of the Mani region filled with myths ready to unfold as you traverse landscapes dotted with Byzantine towers.
03:45Number 3, Meteora.
03:47In our bronze medal spot are the extraordinary monasteries of Meteora.
03:52Situated in central Greece, Meteora's sandstone cliffs rise sharply from the plains as though suspended by a godly force.
03:59Perched atop these towering pinnacles are century-old Eastern Orthodox monasteries and hermit caves scarcely touched by modernity.
04:07Gazing up at these spiritual sanctuaries dramatically framed against the sky is sure to lift one's perception beyond our earthly realm.
04:15Number 2, Delphi.
04:17Runner-up on the list takes us to the mythic and prophetic naval of Delphi, home to the famed Oracle Priestess consulted on everything from affairs of state to the planning of wars.
04:26Sprawling across Mount Parnassos and overlooked by stone amphitheaters, Delphi invites reflection while uncovering secrets of ancient Greeks who once gathered here in search of wisdom and answers from the gods.
04:37Number 1, Athens.
04:40And finally, claiming our gold medal spot for number 1, Athens.
04:44As one of the world's oldest and most storied capitals, Athens offers an open-air museum with gods and myths coming alive through landmarks like the storied Acropolis watching over lively neighborhoods and street art peppered alleyways.
04:56Wandering the marble ruins here sparks imaginings of Athens as the epicenter of ancient Greece and birthplace of enduring ideals still shaping society today.
