Paleokastritsa is a must-visit sight of the travel experience on the island of Corfu. The natural beauty of the place has been adored by locals and visitors alike, by the cinema and photo camera,by the artists’ paintbrush and by the sailors. The crystalline bright turquoise seawaters and the abundant vegetation in a thousand shades of green have made Paleokastritsa a prime destination for those who visit Corfu.
The historic monastery of Panagia Paleokastritissa adds greater meaning to the enchanting area. It is as imposing as any monastery whose cross touches the sky, and very atmospheric due to the ascetic figures of the monks who,dressed in black and bearded as they are, stand out from the happy crowds of visitors in their colorful summer clothes.
Paleokastritsa is much more than the thousands of postcards that advertise its beauty all over the world. Paleokastritsa is history, nature and faith at one single point on the map. Here, the energy of the travelers meets Orthodoxy, the view of the imposing Angelokastro and the generous, unique nature. Myth and reality entangle with each other in the mists of time, setting up fairytale scenery. Paleokatritsa is a destination in itself.
