SUBSCRIBE: – Let’s go to the historic Greek island of Salamina (Σαλαμίνα) and let’s visit the two abandoned windmills overlooking the city. These two windmills are the only two that have survived from the 10 that existed on the island. They were built in the mid-19th century and they were used to grind wheat to make flour.
Salamis, is the largest Greek island in the Saronic Gulf, about 1 nautical mile off-coast from Piraeus and about 16 kilometres west of central Athens. The chief city, Salamina, lies in the west-facing core of the crescent on Salamis Bay, which opens into the Saronic Gulf.
Greece is a country in southeastern Europe with thousands of islands throughout the Aegean and Ionian seas. Influential in ancient times, it’s often called the cradle of Western civilization. Athens, its capital, retains landmarks including the 5th-century B.C. Acropolis citadel with the Parthenon temple. Greece is also known for its beaches, from the black sands of Santorini to the party resorts of Mykonos.
