Apeiranthos

"Apiranthos is one of the most populated and also beautiful villages on the island of Naxos. Its marble-lined streets and attractive stone buildings are a soothing sight to see for even the most hard-to-impress traveler. The town is buzzing with life and here you can find some notable landmarks such as the impressive Panagia Aperathitissa church and the Tower of Zevgolis which dates back to the island’s Venetian period. If you’re looking for attractions, the village has a number of museums, including an archeological museum, a geological museum and a museum of natural history — with a selection of sea creature skeletons and remains. There is also a visual arts museum to explore and a folklore museum with donated tools and artifacts that document the history of everyday life in the town. Apiranthos is a traditional yet unique Cycladic village with its own dialect, architecture and traditions. Just wandering through its streets you can enjoy the slower pace of life, even if just for a little while. Grab a coffee or a cool drink from one of the local cafes and sit in the shade of its narrow alleyways to soak up the ambiance of the place."

"Probably one of the most famous villages in Naxos, with many good taverns. Great evening walk!"
