RE: 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - European Thursday week #43 - the absolute winner takes 200 SBD!
I am particularly fond of the Ionian coast of Greece mainly because of the thriving flora and the incredible colors of the sea and Parga is my favourite town in the area!
Throughout it’s long and turbulent history has been ruled by Normans, Venetians, French, English and Ottomans till 1913 when Greece won in the Balkan Wars. The striking detail in the history is that the Ottoman Ali Pasha of Ioannina, was trying to conquer Parga for more than 20 years and finally he bought it from the English!
The shot is from the town's castle during the dusk!
That view is just magnificent. I wish to be there right now just walking by:)
