10Santorini
Santorini may be famous worldwide, but its traditional Cycladic architecture remains unmatched. Villages like Oia, Imerovigli, and Pyrgos showcase classic cave houses carved into volcanic rock, whitewashed façades, and curved roofs designed to withstand strong winds.
Blue-domed churches punctuate the cliffs, while narrow stairways wind between homes like a labyrinth. Despite its popularity, Santorini remains one of the strongest examples of Cycladic architectural identity—dramatic, harmonious, and instantly recognizable.
