island of Paros

One of the most beautiful islands of Greece!

The capital town (Paroikia) is scenic but my favorite town is Naousa (10 kilometers from Paroikia) with many taverns (fresh fish and traditional "mezedes") and traditional buildings. There is a Venetian castle and if you like the wine you can visit "Moraitis wines" (free entry) where you can see how they make the wine, taste some of these and if you like buy some bottles of wine (Paros is very famous for vinegar!).

If you want to swimming, I recommend the Kolymbithres beach close to Naousa ( http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g189432-d735611-Reviews-Kolymbithres_Beach-Paros_Cyclades.html ).

 

In Paroikia you can visit a nice church (and very famous for Greek Orthodox) the "Panagia Ekatontapyliani" and at the back side of the church you can visit the Archaeological museum of Paros.

 

There are local buses to Naousa -and other towns of Paros- and many taxis.
