A BREATHTAKING TOUR OF A REGION RIPE WITH BEAUT1
,he most striking thing about
the coastal regions of the
Mediterranean is the jux
taposition of ancient cultures and
architecture with hot, tautly curved
young women dressed in designer
nothingness. Documentation of these
women's mystique can be traced to
ancient Greek mythology, particu
larly Homer's chronicle of Helen
of Troy, the fabled Mediterranean
knockout whose lethally attractive
face launched a thousand ships
and sparked the Trojan War. Today,
photographers for playboy's Medi
terranean editions spend their hours
combing the cities and villages in search of arresting pulchritude. Beautiful women can be found strolling among the whitewashed villas of Greece's coastal towns, frolicking in the picturesque Italian countryside, cavorting on the pristine beaches of Croatia and meandering through the crowds on the narrow stone streets of Spain. We culled playboy's international editions from Greece, Spain, Slovenia, Croatia and Italy and found 10 ravishing examples of what this glorious region has to offer. As you'll discover, the coastlines aren't the only views worth taking in.
