2.) Volcanic Landscape
It is a natural wonder of the world thanks to the famous volcanic eruption that took place thousands of years ago, forming the island and giving its shape and geomorphology. The scenic views, unique volcanic pictures, breathtaking caldera, and lunar landscapes are all a result of this eruption. Everything in Santorini appears to fit in in perfect harmony.
