A religious people

Sailing among the Greek isles, there is no way of not noticing the vast number of churches. They are built in the most incredible places: On the top of the highest mountains, on the cliffs by sea sea, and sometimes even on uninhabited islets just off the main islands. On the tiny island of Sifnos, an island you can drive all around in an hour on a moped, there is said to be 365 churches!

Of course, not all of these are as large or beautiful as this one May Linn is standing in front of on Ios.
