|
Chora, the island’s capital is built in an amphitheatrical way on a hill. It is 5km from Livadi, Serifos’ port.
The settlement of Chora is characterized traditional and not unfair. It keeps its medieval feature and stays untouched by the tourist wave. Narrow cobblestone pavements, whitewashed houses, mills, churches and small squares consist the authentic beauty of the settlement. The capital is divided into two neighborhoods, Kato Chora and Pano Chora, where is the square with the Town Hall, the only neoclassic building of the settlement. In the Town Hall is hosted the Archaeological collection of the island.
From the top of the hill where Chora is built, are the remains of the Venetian castle. The view from up there is magic.
While touring in Chora you will see many churches. Among them distinguish those of Saint Athanasios, Saint Eleftherios, Annunciation, Saint Ioannis Theologos and of Saint Constantine near Kastro with panoramic view.
In the taverns you will enjoy traditional recipes. Try marathotiganites, kaparosalad, kakavia and cock with spaghetti. Accompany your meal with the local wine.
In Chora you will find rooms to let that guarantee a pleasant staying.
