Naxos Town (Hora)

Naxos Town (or Hora) on the west coast is the island’s port and capital and it is the arrival point for all but air visitors. It is a fine Cycladic town, with twisting narrow streets and alleys originally intended to confuse invading marauders. The Old Town, up on the hill, is divided into two neighbourhoods: Bourgos where the Greeks lived, and Castle (Kastro) above, residence of the Venetian-Catholic nobility. Most of the Castle’s current residents claim descent from the Venetians, and many of their grandparents’ tombstones in the 13th-century Catholic Cathedral boast grand titles.

The daily life of Naxos Town centres on the waterfront and the Old Town and most of the island amenities are to be found in Naxos Town.
