Description
Santorini in Greece, is one of the most popular destinations in the world. This photograph is taken in Oia village.
The Santorinians built their houses into the volcanic rock, creating entire villages nestled into the island’s cliffs (yposkafos). An yposkafo can be a dwelling that is dug entirely into the rock or one with exterior additions that are usually covered by a dome. Following the natural lines of the caldera, the houses face south and west, while their horizontal arrangement means that one home’s balcony is another’s rooftop.
