Chora of Amorgos

Chora of Amorgos is located almost in the center of the island and is its capital. Its position is not accidental. The inhabitants had chosen it in the past because it is hidden out of the sea and not being seen by the pirates. Its port is Katapola, about 5 km away.

The architecture of Chora is something unique in the Cyclades. From the first moment you will be amazed by its nobility, rare architecture and numerous churches. The windmills at Troullos site cause you to stop at the edge of the road and take pictures of them.

Paved streets, white houses full of flowerpots with basil and cloves, and yards with the sweet scent of honeysuckle and jasmine make up a fragrant atmosphere. Most shops of Chora are on the main old cobbled street. All taverns, ouzo bars and gift shops are on traditional buildings and decorated with passion, add another touch to the beauty of Chora.

However, people make the place. The people of Chora are kind. You will immediately understand it from the spontaneous early morning greetings you will exchange with the hospitable people of Chora as a reward for being honored for visiting them in the capital of Amorgos.
