Best Cycladic Islands for Traditional Architecture & Whitewashed Charm

Amorgos stands out for its dramatic relationship between architecture and nature. Whitewashed villages like Langada and Tholaria cling to mountainsides, while the iconic Monastery of Panagia Hozoviotissa appears almost carved into the cliff itself. 

The architecture here is functional and humble, shaped by isolation and rugged terrain. Amorgos feels spiritual, raw, and visually powerful—Cycladic design at its most profound.
