Santorini: Finikia Santorini

Finikia Oia: Finikia is a small village which contains some traditional Cycladic churches and here you can also find some of the cave houses that are dug into the island itself.

These houses are designed to insulate the occupants in the winter and if you get the chance to enter one during the summer you will notice how nice and cool the temperature is. The other good thing about the sort of houses you find at Finikia is that increasing their size is not much a problem; another room just needs to be dug into the soft rock.
