Description The island of Santorini is the island of the blue domes. There are a zillion churches here and they all have beautiful blue domes. The reason why there are so many churches here and in Greece in general is not only because of the religious culture but also caused by the fact that anybody who build a church on their property is released from paying tax over that property. The church of course needs to be official but that does not seem to be a problem here!

It's great! Do you travel everywhere? Where is your favorite spot, a spot that gives you a feeling of peace?

Hiddenplanet In reply to delish8203 [2006-10-27 17:13:14 +0000 UTC]

Of course there are a few spots but some very favourit are: Kakadu National Park-Australia, Tibet, Botswana, Virunga National Park in Rwanda (mountain gorilla's), Galapagos Islands and Terschelling (small Island in the Netherlands). Of course there are so many spots but I do keep track of my personal "magic places". I hope to share some more with you after I got a decent scanner for my older negatives!
