Megalochori is a quiet traditional village in the heart of Santorini, sitting on a hill facing east. The roads narrow as you get closer to the village, a mixture of cream and white Cycladic houses with contrasting colourful wooden doors.

Pyrgos

Pyrgos is a town in central Thira, the largest island of the Santorini archipelago in the Cyclades islands of Greece. It is home to one of 5 Venetian castles that were built on the island to defend it against invaders.

Vothonas is a small rock in Santorini. A tangle of paths lead from the village up to the houses built into the cliffs. Much as the villagers did in Caldera, the residents built their homes in the rocky walls of the ravine.
