The blue and white dream of Santorini

Santorini is located in the southern part of the Aegean Sea in Greece, across the sea from Crete. The island is formed by three towns connected in series: Fira, Firostefani and Imerovigli. The blue and white houses are the essence of Santorini. Whether you live in Fira, Firostefani or Imerovigli, you can easily walk to the 🚶🏻‍♂️cliff walkway, wander along this road, take photos 📸, get closer to the Aegean Sea step by step, and have a more real and closer view 👀of the azure Aegean Sea and the volcanic island 🌋. The cliff 👣walk is about 3 kilometers long, and Firostefani is located in the middle of the trail, 1.5 kilometers from the towns on both sides. If you start from Fira, you are walking uphill; if you start from Imerovigli and go towards Fira, you are walking downhill. At any point on the promenade, you can overlook the Aegean Sea, look out at the volcanic island, and enjoy the sunset. 📍⛳️Fira is the capital of Santorini and a traditional settlement. The town has convenient transportation. There are direct buses to Oia Town🏕️, Black Sand Beach and Red Sand Beach🏖️, etc. It is the bus transfer station for Santorini. The town's alleys are crisscrossed and winding, with many souvenir shops, restaurants, bars, etc. The Old Port, Cable Car 🚡 and Donkey Trail are located in this town. 📍⛳️Oia The dazzling pearl on Santorini Island, the cliff-view Oia Island has the most beautiful sunset in the world🌇, where you can enjoy the stunning scene of the sunset🌇 falling into the Aegean Sea.
