Between the manicured lawns, music pavilion, and lively outdoor seating, this central hub captures Corfu’s cosmopolitan charm.
  3. Saint Spyridon Church

    Dedicated to the island’s patron saint, this 16th-century church is a must-visit for its soaring bell tower, lavish interiors, and sacred relics.

    Housed in an elegant neoclassical palace from Corfu’s British era, this museum showcases one of Europe’s finest collections of Asian art.
