Naxos is a large and fertile island in the center of a group of islands. It offers visitors many activity options and entertainment choices. The Chora town, with its whitewashed buildings, greets visitors at the harbor. The popular landmark of Portara, located on the Palatia Islet, is the marble gate of an ancient Greek temple dedicated to god Apollo.
Chora, the main town on Naxos island, has several fortified palaces that were built during the Venetian Period when Naxos was the seat of the Duchy of the Aegean. The island’s diverse and uneven landscape has created a variety of ecosystems. Naxos is known for its rich cultural activities.
