Are you ready to discover Episkopio?
On this walk, we will go to Episkopio village, passing by the industrial area of Hermoupollis following the old path.
Episkopio or Piskopio was the first site of the metropolis of Syros and the residence of the Bishop hence its name. The first villas of sovereigns were built on the green hill Episkopio and thus were considered one of the most stunning resorts on the island. Located on the road to Kini just 4,5 km from Ermoupoli, Episkopio offers magnificent views. The Church of Prophet Elijah dominating the Hill, the Piskopiani Virgin Mary, and the red house that inspired M. Karagatsi to write the great novel Chimera are some of the main attractions.
