10 Budget-friendly Things to do in Naxos Town That You Shouldn't Miss

December 2, 2021 Elouise Mccaul

The Greek city of Naxos is steeped in mythological mystique and ancient history. The purported home of Dionysus, the Greek god of wine, is fringed with glorious beaches, collisions of turquoise waters and sapphire horizons. The ruins of The Portara frame the sky like a door to another world, while renovated Venetian mansions offer a glimpse into the upper crust of yesteryear. The 13th-century castle is simply breathtaking.

Pick up extra jars, you will thank me. I am just finishing the last jar of candies. Even though it reads best before July 2019, it’s still hard, sweet and delicious. The best handmade hard candy I’ve had. It’s just delicious. I hope they will accommodate my request and ship to my home in Florida, USA.

Vioma

Vioma means experience. The word Vioma comes from the verb vio or bio which means ‘to live’. It‘s the experience that we gain throughout our lives, which forms our character and gives in our daily life unique meaning. ‘Vioma’ provides experiences to whoever would like to immerse themselves in the Naxian way of life. On an island where history has aided in the formation of a wealthy and stable cultural infrastructure, our unique gastronomy and culture allow us to generously share our bounty with our friends. Cookery lessons, activities and cultural events will take place all year round in chosen areas of Naxos, enabling visitors to familiarize themselves with the island’s natural wealth and way of life.

Kastro

This 13th century castle houses a 16th century Catholic Cathedral, the Archaeological Museum and the Venetian Museum.

Reviewed By duhoz - Beroun, Czech Republic

I fall in love with this charming part of the city. Day or night I enjoyed seamlessly roaming the narrow streets full of boutiques, taverns, galleries and little houses where still the locals live, not just seized by tourists. From some parts there as beautiful views of the city. Unfortunately some buildings such as the Tower or museum which are currently under the reconstruction.

Old Town

Reviewed By MrandMrsRo - Chester, United Kingdom

Lovely scenic alleyways. Lots of shops but didn't feel tacky touristy. We found an excellent traditional wood fired bakery in the Old Market area - best bread we had on the island and freshly baked all day long so piping hot when bought - open all day and till 9pm at night too. Worth going right up to the castle area and onto the terrace (through a cafe) to get a wonderful panoramic view of the island.
