The Aristocratic Island of Cyclades
Located right in the middle of the Cyclades, the island of Syros is in fact the Capital of the group.
Syros is a stunning beacon of culture and tradition, distinctively blending classic Cycladic charm with a rich historical tapestry.
The island’s capital, Ermoupoli, is a testament to the island’s storied past, featuring beautifully restored neoclassical buildings and narrow marble-paved streets. This city isn’t just the administrative centre; it’s a lively hub of culture and arts, with the magnificent Apollo Theater—an architectural jewel inspired by Milan’s La Scala—taking a place of pride, along with the largest Town Hall in Greece and other magnificent strutures.
As you arrive by ferry you will see the twin hills that Ermoupoli sits across. One topped with a Greek Orthodox Cathedral and the other, Ano Syros the islands medieval Capital, a Catholic one. To this day the islands residents are 50% orthodox and 50% catholic and that in itself is unique in Greece.
The island also has some lovely beaches that are a perfect escape for those seeking tranquillity or a bit of adventure.
Gastronomy on Syros is a big deal and there are many local delights, makers and growers. Loukoumi, a type of Turkish delight, and Halvadopita, a nougat pie, are must-tries for anyone with a sweet tooth, while the fresh seafood and local cheeses offer a taste of the island’s culinary heritage.
