3Syros – The Elegant Capital of the Cyclades

Unlike the other Cycladic islands with their typical whitewashed villages, Syros has a neoclassical charm that sets it apart. The island’s capital, Ermoupoli, is a stunning blend of Venetian and Greek influences, featuring grand mansions, marble-paved streets, and historic churches.

Syros is also a cultural hub, hosting festivals, concerts, and theatrical performances year-round. The local cuisine is rich and diverse, with specialties like loukoumi (Greek delight) and local cheeses adding to the island’s authentic charm.
