destination that seamlessly blends Venetian, French, and British influences with rich Greek traditions.<\/p>\n<p>Located on the island of Corfu in the Ionian Sea, this UNESCO World Heritage Site features a maze of narrow cobblestone streets, historic buildings, and picturesque squares that highlight its diverse cultural heritage.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re a history enthusiast, a foodie, or a beach lover, Kerkyra offers something for everyone.<\/p>\n<h2>Influences left by Conquerors<\/h2>\n<p>Corfu Old Town bears the marks of its long history of conquest. For 411 years, the Venetians ruled Corfu, leaving a lasting impact on its architecture and culture. As you explore the eastern part of the town, you&#8217;ll encounter a treasure trove of landmarks and monuments.<\/p>\n<p>Strategically positioned between the New Fortress to the west and the Old Fortress to the east, the town&#8217;s historic core reflects the influence of its various rulers. The Venetian legacy is especially prominent, with numerous Italian architectural gems preserved throughout the city. Narrow alleyways known as \u201cKantounia,\u201d towering old buildings, and scattered green spaces create a unique urban landscape reminiscent of a small <a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/place\/Venice\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Venice<\/a>, minus the canals.<\/p>\n<p>The Venetian influence is complemented by British remnants, such as the St. Michael and St. George Palace, and French touches, like Liston.

This UNESCO World Heritage Site is a remarkable city adorned with a plethora of monuments and historical sites, most notably from the Venetian era. Enclosed by the Old Fortress to the east and the New Fortress to the north and west, this area, known as Kastropolis, is unique in Greece.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the island&#8217;s tumultuous history, the Old Town\u2019s stately edifices, characterized by towering structures and slender alleys, have withstood the test of time. Built from stone and wood, these architectural marvels feature traditional tile-clad roofs that preserve the medieval essence of the city.<\/p>\n<h2>Districts of Corfu Old Town<\/h2>\n<p>Corfu Old Town is divided into seven distinct districts:<\/p>\n<div class=\"narrow-box\">\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Porta Remounta:<\/strong> The southern district near Garitsa Bay.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pentofanaro:<\/strong> Located in the Liston area.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Kofineta:<\/strong> West of the Palace of St. Michael and George.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Agioi Pateres:<\/strong> In the heart of the town.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Jewish Sector:<\/strong> Near the New Fortress.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spilia:<\/strong> The area around the old port.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Kampielo:<\/strong> The northern part of the Old Town.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<p>Most streets within the Old Town are now pedestrian zones, with vehicular traffic limited to the outskirts.

This peristyle, named after the first British Lord High Commissioner of the Ionian Islands, reflected the British affinity for classical Greek architecture and contributed to the island\u2019s blend of styles.<\/p>\n<p>The British also constructed <strong>Mon Repos Palace<\/strong>, originally built in 1828 as a summer residence for the British governors.<\/p>\n<p>This elegant neoclassical palace later became the birthplace of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, and today serves as a museum and public park, offering visitors a glimpse into Corfu&#8217;s royal history.<\/p>\n<p>On a more practical level, the British contributed significantly to the island\u2019s infrastructure. They built an <strong>aqueduct<\/strong> that greatly improved the water supply to Corfu Town, addressing long-standing issues of water shortages. This engineering feat was vital for the growing population and helped modernize the town\u2019s utilities.<\/p>\n<p>Culturally, the British introduced several traditions, including the game of <strong>cricket<\/strong>, which remains popular on the island today. Corfu is one of the few places in Greece where cricket is still played, a direct legacy of British influence.<\/p>\n<p>Another enduring tradition is the introduction of <strong>ginger beer<\/strong>, a beverage that quickly became a local favorite and is still produced and enjoyed in Corfu.<\/p>\n<p>These developments\u2014ranging from grand architectural projects to everyday cultural imports\u2014left a lasting legacy on Corfu, blending British influence with the island&#8217;s rich Venetian and Greek heritage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Events and Festivals<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_33313\" class=\"thumbnail wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"width: 700px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/atcorfu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/corfu-easter-2-events.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-33313\" src=\"https:\/\/atcorfu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/corfu-easter-2-events-700x394.jpg\" alt=\"Corfu Easter events\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" srcset=\"https:\/\/atcorfu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/corfu-easter-2-events-700x394.jpg 700w, https:\/\/atcorfu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/corfu-easter-2-events-1140x641.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/atcorfu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/corfu-easter-2-events-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/atcorfu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/corfu-easter-2-events-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/atcorfu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/corfu-easter-2-events-386x217.jpg 386w, https:\/\/atcorfu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/corfu-easter-2-events-780x439.jpg 780w, https:\/\/atcorfu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/corfu-easter-2-events-1170x658.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/atcorfu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/corfu-easter-2-events-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/atcorfu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/corfu-easter-2-events-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/atcorfu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/corfu-easter-2-events.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"caption wp-caption-text\">Corfu Easter events<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"narrow-box\">\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Easter Celebrations:<\/strong> Known for the &#8220;Pot Throwing&#8221; tradition and vibrant processions.
