8Explore Corfu Town and the Old Fortress
A visit to Corfu Island wouldn’t be complete without exploring Corfu Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This charming town is a mix of Venetian, French, and British influences, reflected in its stunning architecture. Stroll through the narrow alleyways of the Old Town, visit Liston Promenade, and admire the grand Spianada Square, the largest square in Greece.
One of the highlights is the Old Fortress, a Venetian-built stronghold offering breathtaking panoramic views of the island and the sea. The fortress played a crucial role in Corfu’s defense against Ottoman invasions and is now a fascinating historical site to explore.
