One day: Ermoupolis and Ano Syros

Ermoupolis, the capital of Syros, used to be a rich trade center in the past, which is depicted today in its wonderful architecture. The elegant mansions with the Venetian style and the Neoclassical buildings of Ermoupolis come in contrast to the traditional Cycladic architecture of the other villages on Syros.

The highlight of Ermoupolis is Miaouli Square, where you can see the impressive Town Hall. The most picturesque neighborhood of Ermoupolis, Vaporia, is great to walk around.

Later on, go to Ano Syros, a nice village almost attached to Ermoupolis. From the square of Ano Syros, you get the best view of Ermoupolis and the busy port. This is the coffee spot with the best view on the island.

In the afternoon, go for a swim in Kini, a sandy beach about 10 km east of Ermoupolis. Lovely taverns and cafeterias can be found by the beach and many tourist facilities. This beach is organized but generally, it remains calm.
