Aegina is a Greek island in the Saronic Gulf, just an hour from Athens. Once a powerful trading city-state that rivaled Athens, it was among the first in Greece to mint silver coins. The island later served as the first capital of modern Greece in the 1820s. Today, Aegina is known for the ancient Temple of Aphaia, pistachios, and its charming seaside villages. #Greece | The Bearded Backpacker
