A Greek island situated in the Aegean Sea, Paros is best known for its beaches and traditional villages. Parikia, a beautiful village and the bayside capital, is a boating and transportation hub for the Cyclades region. It is known for its neoclassical mansions and whitewashed cubic houses. Paros is synonymous for the high-quality marble that was quarried in ancient times, used for the Parthenon’s roof tiles. Visit the beautiful village of Naoussa, where you will see ruins of a Venetian fortress at the entrance to its small harbor and then head to Lefkes, the highest point of Paros, to enjoy spectacular views of the island.
