The Hellenic Organization of Cultural Resources Development has developed, edited and published the present guide.
It contains short, comprehensive descriptions of more than 300 archaeological sites, museums and monuments in Greece.
Of course, these descriptions do not aim at serving as detailed scholarly guides to the sights,
but rather highlighting their main characteristics in a vivid manner.
In addition, information is provided on other points of interest in each region, with emphasis on the elements of intangible cultural heritage,
both traditional and contemporary.
Apart from the popular destinations that boast large numbers of visitors each year, many monuments and museums or collections presented here
are rather unknown to the wide public.
However, although little known, they are significant for the history and physiognomy of their regions,
having evolved over time from prehistory to modern times in every corner of Greece.
