Naxos island, an island with marvelous endless sandy beaches of unique beauty and picturesque villages scattered around its territory.
Innumerous monuments, churches and towers, rich nature and local products (meat, fish, dairy products and wine) are some of the island's characteristics. 

Rich in history, the island offers many historic monuments scattered all over its territory. The wealth of finds brought to light by the archaeological excavations that have been carried out for many years now, in a tireless attempt to uncover all the treasures of the past, indicate that Naxos was the most important center of the Cycladic civilization (4000 - 1000 B.C.).  

As far as the architectural style is concerned, the houses in Naxos town itself (otherwise known as the Chora) do not bear the mark of the typical Cycladic home. There are, of course, certain common elements, such as the defensive nature of the settlement, built as it is on the side of a hill which forms a natural acropolis at the towns highest point; the density of the buildings, again a result of the defensive nature of the town; the fortification, and the expansion of the settlement beyond the ramparts in later years.
