Synopsis "Andros. Hiking in the Little England of the Cyclades: Culture Hikes in the Greek Islands"

This book is a travel story describing, through a large number of black and white photos, with concise historical and architectural explanations, a hiking tour in one of the culturally richest and yet not enough known islands of Greece. Andros is not among the most known and visited islands of Greece. And yet, it deserves much more attention, since its hidden beauties are many more than the obvious ones. This book endeavours to cover this omission and give a glimpse of this cultural richness to the visitor who desires to discover it. Among other things, it presents one of the most beautiful neoclassical ensembles in Greece, historic monasteries, beautiful villages, a landscape of waterfalls and astonishing greenery in the arid Cyclades and the island's great naval tradition, which gave it the nickname of 'Little England'.
