6Parga, Epirus

On the northwestern mainland coast, Parga looks more like a colorful island than a mainland town. Its hillside houses cascade down toward a bright blue bay, creating a dramatic and romantic setting. 

A Venetian castle overlooks the village, while small beaches sit within walking distance of the center. In summer, boats depart daily for nearby hidden coves, offering visitors endless opportunities for exploration.

Parga is especially magical at sunset, when the entire village glows in warm golden light.
