Chora

The capital of the island, Chora, is a Medieval town organized around an impressive rock, on top of which are the ruins of a Venetian castle. With its 40 Byzantine and early Christian churches, its traditional houses, its narrow paved alleys, Chora resembles a labyrinth with many cafes and traditional taverns, offering a particular atmosphere. It is considered one of the most beautiful capital towns in the Cyclades. It hosts the first historical high school of independent Greece.
