Sidari Corfu

In a distance of 32 kms from Corfu capital there is Sidari. A realy amazing seaside holiday resort which is spectacular because of the unigue geological shape of the place, where the sea is getting to the sandy beaches and create awesome shaped bays.The ‘”canal d’amour” (the channel of love) is a natural creation with virgin beaulty caves and slopes. The name was given to it because it was believed that those who manage to go throw it, soon will meet the love of their life. In the area are three golden sandy beaches. They all have sun-beds and beach bars for every one so you have a nice and relaxed time. The unique landscape gives a magic scenery for an unforgetable holiday time.

Old Perithia

The Ano Perithia or Old Perithia is a graphical village in north Corfu, built on 450 metres high on the slopes of mountain Pantoktator, 8 km far from Kassiopi. There are a lot of rumours about the provenance of the villages name from “ peri-thea” which mean “seen from the mountains around it”. This village is known from 300 B.C. when a destroyable tsounami hit the coast of the island. Those who survived looked up for a safer piece of land far away from the sea.

History

On the 14th century Corfiots sufferd from pirates invasions and found refuge on the village far away from the sea-side. On the beginnig of 20th century the locals started to live only three months a year, only summer time, on the village. As time went by it became a touristic area with a lot of architecture buildings (up to 130 made of stone). There are also many impressive churches. Ano Perithia is called to be a Historical Monument. The beauty and the architecture of the area travel visitors back to the Venetian years.
