Zakynthos Page 5
Hints from Harry
Zakynthos is good island to explore on a scooter, although the bus service
is adequate. Some complain about post earthquake architecture but
should remember Greece is a poor country with few trees. The low
and squat buildings are designed to be proof against future quakes. Also remember that Greeks were building beautiful structures and making
beautiful art works while many were living in less fortunate circumstances. See more photos
