Legends about the Aegean Sea

In ancient times, there was a king named Minos who ruled Crete, an island in the Aegean Sea. Minos' son was murdered in Atticus, Athens. In order to avenge his son, Minos challenged the people of Athens. Under God's punishment, Athens was full of famine and plague. Under the challenge of Minos, the Athenians made peace with King Minos. Minos asked them to send seven pairs of boys and girls to Crete every nine years.

Minos built a maze with numerous palaces in Crete. In the maze, the road is tortuous and no one can get in. In the depths of the maze, Minos raised a beast with a bull's head, Minos. Athens sent seven pairs of men and women at a time, all of which were dedicated to Minos cattle.

This year is a year of worshipping boys and girls. The parents of both boys and girls were frightened. Theseus, the son of Aegean, the king of Athens, was deeply disturbed to see people suffer such misfortune. He was determined to set out with the boys and girls and vowed to kill Minos cattle.

The people of Athens bid farewell to seven pairs of boys and girls, including theseus, in the voice of weeping. Theseus and his father agreed that if he killed MINO, he would turn black sails on the boat into a white sail when he came back. As long as black sails on the ship turns white, it proves that King Aegean can see his son theseus again.

Theseus led the virgins ashore in Crete. His handsomeness attracted the attention of the beautiful and clever princess Ariadne, the daughter of King Mysius. The princess expressed her love for theseus and met him secretly. When she knew theseus's mission, she gave him a magic sword and a ball of thread to prevent theseus from being hurt by MINO.

As soon as the clever and brave theseus entered the maze, he tied one end of the thread ball to the entrance of the maze, then let go of the thread ball and walked along the tortuous and complicated passage to the depths of the maze. Finally, he finally found the monster minotaur. He grabbed the horn of Minos bull and tried to kill it with the sword given by Princess Ariadne. Then, he took the boys and girls and walked out of the maze along the route. In order to prevent the pursuit of King Minos, they cut through the bottoms of all Crete ships at the seaside. Princess Ariadne helped them, fled Crete with them and went home by boat. After a few days of sailing, I finally saw my motherland Athens again. Theseus and his partner were singing and dancing with excitement, but he forgot his agreement with his father and didn't change black sails into a white sail. The Aegean king, waiting for his son to return, is waiting for his son to return at the seaside. When he saw that the returning ship was still carrying black sails, he thought that his son had been eaten by a cow in MINO. He was heartbroken and committed suicide by jumping into the sea. In memory of the king of the Aegean Sea, he jumped into Na Pianhai, and this place has been called the Aegean Sea ever since.

Aegean island-the residence of Zeus' lover

Aegean Island is the closest island to Athens. This used to be a beautiful fairyland on earth, and Zeus' most touching mistress was hidden here. Maybe the fig trees all over the mountains are the fruits of their love. What really made the Aegean Sea famous was the rescue of Salamis, Greece. 2480 years ago, King Sels of Persia led a huge navy to invade Greece, and locust-like ships covered the sky. The tiny Athens city-state was in danger, but Greece had their wise commander-in-chief, Timis Torcles, who led a capable navy division to destroy three times his own warships in one fell swoop on the Salamis waterway and let the Greek sun rise to the sky again. The temple of Afia, built on the island at the end of the 6th century BC and the beginning of the 5th century BC, is a typical representative building in the late classical Greece.

Izra Island-City of Artists

Izra Island is about three hours' flight from Athens. In the slender and clean alleys of the island, donkeys leisurely carry tourists. White walls, blue windows and pink roofs make the island more lovely. Clusters of red flowers and purple flowers appear from time to time in the small courtyard, and the lemon trees are covered with bright yellow lemon fruits, which are so heavy that the branches are bent. The transparency of seawater here is the highest, and there are many estuaries and bays on the coast that go deep into the island. These secluded estuaries are good places for tourists who like to swim alone.

18- 19 th century, the maritime trade in Izra was very developed, so many businessmen were very rich. In the War of Independence, which started at 182 1, they armed their own fleet and actively participated in the battle, making great contributions. Izra is still a heroic island in the eyes of the Greeks. There are many luxury houses on the island, which are the property of these wealthy businessmen and one of the scenery on the island. Because the island is quiet and beautiful, young artists from all over the world have come here to engage in artistic creation since ancient times, so it is called "the island of artists". Their gold and silver jewelry, glass and porcelain, decorations are all put out for anyone to buy, and they often see some reasonable and unique handicrafts. 10 euro can buy a very chic hand-painted glass bottle, and the little girl who sells things smiles very pure. "This glass bottle is really good and the price is the best. I bought some for my mother's birthday. " The last sentence of the little girl touched me. I bought the hydra island on the glass, which is pure in nature and pure in person.

Michelon Island is one of the Kiklaze Islands in southern Greece and one of the most famous holiday islands in the Aegean Sea. There are few residents on the island, and it is quite quiet during the non-tourist time of about half a year. After April, the tourist season began, and tourists from all over the world came to the island like migratory birds to enjoy the sunshine and beaches in the Mediterranean.

Walking on the island, it is strange to see that the roofs are all flat roofs built with big stones. Asked the local residents, I realized that it was cold and windy in winter on the island. Only these strong roofs can resist the cold wind. On the mountain near the sea in the southwest of the island, there are five Kiklaze windmills, which are the symbols of Michelangelo Island.

During the day, the beach in the bay is a good place for people to swim and sunbathe.

Sardinia, Italy is a popular holiday resort in Europe, probably because it is a beautiful and indifferent paradise.

Sardinia, located in western Italy, was formerly called Sardinia. It is a huge island in the middle of the Mediterranean. Sardinia has a unique Italian culture and is one of the oldest regions in Europe. In 227 BC, Sardinia became a province of ancient Rome, and more than 200 years later, it was occupied by the Vandals. /kloc-In the 4th century, Sardinia became a part of Iberia (Spain today). During its 400 years of rule, Sardinia absorbed a lot of Spanish culture, which is why Sardinia is the favorite sailing resort of the Spanish king.

The royal family and celebrities chose Sardinia because they liked the tranquility here. At that time, when Princess Diana of England and her rich boyfriend Fayyad were inseparable, she took great pains to find a place with beautiful scenery and no one cares. Because both of them are public figures chased by the spotlight, once they are discovered by the busybodies, they will always cause an uproar. But if it is too remote and the environment is not enough to enjoy, they certainly can't stand being spoiled. After careful consideration, they think Sardinia is the most suitable choice. On the one hand, the residents of this island are indifferent by nature, and I don't care what big shots you come to; On the other hand, because there are too many stars, everyone is used to it. But who knows, their leisure vacation has just begun, and the paparazzi took photos of them on luxury yachts. It was great, which not only contributed heavy news to the entertainment headlines, but also brought them $6,543,800+0,000 in income.

Another Italian Prime Minister who has some connection with Sardinia is silvio berlusconi. This temperament, the Prime Minister is a super rich man. After he entered the political arena through election with strong financial resources, he repeatedly expressed his dissatisfaction in public, saying that his position as prime minister kept him so busy that he only visited the luxury cruise ship docked in Sardinia Bay once after buying it. The island was full of luxury villas, and he was too busy to enjoy it for this reason. The prime minister with charming voice sang his own love songs for his people through his private TV station-Italian TV 5, and more than100000 people in Italy appreciated the prime minister's singing style. In the program, Berlusconi wore a white dress and gathered with a group of people by a swimming pool. Accompanied by his favorite Neapolitan guitarist and singer Mariano Episila, he sang his latest song "Singing a Song is Better" with deep affection. The background of the whole program is the bay of Sardinia, Italy. The blue sea and beautiful beaches set off a beautiful artistic conception for Berlusconi's singing. When recording this program, he was spending his rare holiday in a luxurious villa in Sardinia. Not long ago, he received visiting British Prime Minister Tony Blair in his luxurious villa. It seems that he has finally found a balance between work and enjoyment, and can handle government affairs without giving up the feeling of enjoying luxury.

Due to the indifferent nature of the island, residents living in Sardinia generally live a long life. The main reason is that people there are always happy. The family structure of the island residents is relatively large, and family members can share the fun of life and solve problems and troubles, so the elderly at home will not feel lonely because they are old. It is this positive attitude towards life that enables many old people there to "stay young forever" and spend more than a hundred years calmly. Maybe that's why this island has become a holiday resort. Royal dignitaries may also want to know the living habits and attitudes of islanders through a short time in Sardinia, so as to live longer.
