Corfu

Kerkyra Old Town

Corfu Island, Old Town of Kerkyra, Greece

Description:

The old town of Kerkyra is located next to its modern part. You can walk for hours and enjoy the unique atmosphere. It is considered one of the most famous sights not only of Corfu, but of the whole of Greece. The city is quite large, there is something to see. The architectural style in which the city was built is Baroque. No wonder Italian tourists compare the old pride with Italy. Narrow streets, low balconies of houses with flowers and vine, palaces, fountains, colonnades - only a small part of what has survived to our time. The houses built here combine several different styles - Greek, English, French. Attention is attracted by arches and galleries, elegant bars on the windows and balconies. The streets do not have a strict order, any of them can get to the palaces and temples of the city of Kerkyra. One of the most famous is the monastery of Vlaherna. You can get there by public transport - green bass bus to the stop "Old Town"
