The Chora is - without doubt - one of the prettiest towns to be seen on the Cyclades. It stands nearly 400 metres above sea level with views of both the east and west coasts of Amorgos. Forty churches are dotted around the village and there are beautiful shaded squares and narrow lanes to wander around beneath the Venetian Castle. There are a few taverns in the village, which offer excellent food, and some cafes
