EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image transports us back in time to the 16th century, as we gaze upon the ancient fortress of Corfu, also known as Palaio Frourio or Old Fortress, in the enchanting Ionian island of Kerkyra, Greece. Built by the Venetians between 1572 and 1640, this architectural marvel is a testament to the rich history and cultural influences that have shaped this beautiful Mediterranean destination. The fortress is divided into two distinct parts: the land castle and the castle of the sea. The land castle, perched atop a rocky hill, is a labyrinth of narrow, winding streets filled with charming Venetian-style houses, quaint cafes, and colorful shops. The castle of the sea, located on the waterfront, is a formidable fortification with towering walls and bastions, designed to protect the island from invading forces. As we admire the intricate details of the fortress's stone walls and the vibrant hues of the surrounding buildings, we can almost hear the clanging of swords and the bustling sounds of the bustling marketplace that once thrived within these ancient walls. The crystal-clear waters of the Ionian Sea lap gently against the shore, creating a stark contrast between the modern age and the historical past. A visit to Corfu's Old Fortress is a must for anyone seeking to explore the fascinating history and culture of this magical island. Whether you're a history buff, an architecture enthusiast, or simply someone looking to immerse yourself in the beauty and charm of the Mediterranean, this iconic fortress is sure to leave a lasting impression.
