Incredible views

Skaros Rock is kind of a rocky outcropping that hangs above the Aegean on the volcanic caldera of Santorini. It's located in Imerovigli, a beautiful white village built into the rocks that has incredible views and some of the most expensive hotels in the world. To get to Skaros Rock, you have to go up down a narrow staircase until you get to the bottom of the crater where you'll find a white and blue chapel like you see all over Santorini. From there, you have a long climb up the steps until you get to the rock. Along the way, you'll see ruins of a medieval castle destroyed by an earthquake in the nineteenth century. Apparently, it was a Christian castle that remained unconquered for over 600 years. Once you reach Skaros Rock, there's a beautiful chapel overlooking the sea.
