The Kastro at Hora

The Kastro at Hora
Copyright (2003) George Vardas

This is probably one of the most photographed vistas on the island depicting the 700 year old Kastro in Hora with Kapsali Bay visible in the distance. The congregation of churches and other buildings around the base of the Kastro and within proximity of the Kastro was a product of a time when residents, fearful of pirate raids, could find safety within the walls of the Kastro.
