Greece, the country of fascinating contradictions, whether it’s the 16.000km of coastline with the variety of beaches, the 227 islands with the exquisite architecture or the breathtaking alpine landscape with 4.144 mountains and 400 gorges along with a plethora of archaeological sites, medieval castles, theaters and temples. Greece’s vast architectural capacity has been used to portray numerous other countries in films.

The country’s climate along with its location – just a few hours away from major European capitals – and its magnificent scenery has made Greece into a top choice for film production, with more than 120 productions the last couple of years.
