Last week of July we left Athens in order to spend some days in the biggest island of Cyclades... Naxos is an island that wins you over at first glance! While you enter the port, you can admire Portara, which stands at the islet of Vakhos, the temple which was never completed. Then the Venetian Castle which stands at the highest part of Chora and waiting for the visitors to walk in its narrow alleys, discovering its long history since 1207 and gazing at its Venetian mansions with their fabulous coats of arms! I really could imagine myself staying and working there from spring to autumn each year, as it is a place which inspires everyone and offers serenity and tranquility! Not by chance so many artists staying and create in this wonderful island!!!
