Town & Village Category: towns & Villages

Fifteen kilometers inland from Naxos town (Chora) lies the beautiful traditional village of Halki on the plateau of Tragea with its picturesque streets and squares, flowery balconies, orchards and olive groves.

An important commercial centre of past decades due to its strategic position, Halki had substantial economic development that allowed the inhabitants to build wonderful towers and neoclassical houses. Nowadays Halki boasts a different kind of development with beautiful art galleries, boutique guesthouses, restaurants and coffee shops.

If you visit Halki, follow the paths that lead you to exquisite Byzantine churches (including the impressive church of Panagia Protothroni, Evangelismos), visit the 17th century-tower of Barozzi and do not forget to try kítro, the local Greek spirit made out of citrus tree leaves!
