My Corfu holiday - The town - Chapter II - La città di Corfù

Hello everybody! This is a post dedicated to all of those who are still deciding where to spend their holidays. The Corfù island would be the perfect choice. Here are some pics of my holiday from the town of Corfu and its narrow Venetian streets and elegant Coffee shops. The historical center of Corfu is sophisticated, elegant and chic. There are a myriad little stores offering a very wide range of local products, olive oil based cosmetic products and so on and on. The town has got everything, beautiful places to visit (museums) and beautiful places to rest. Hope you enjoy and stay tuned for the third chapter!

Typical Venetian building in the center 

  The Museum of Asian Art  -  Palace of Saint Michael and St. George (this one was built during the English Rule in the 19 century) 

Liston - the biggest and most important Coffee bar of Corfu (Liston is a Venetian word that indicates the pieces of marble used for the street paving) 

 breathtaking view from one of the two Venetian fortresses

 Typical Venetian Architecture - loggiato 

 The townhall dates 1663, Venetian building 

 An orthodoc icon of the Blessed Virgin Mary Monastery (Paleokastritsa)
