PALIO CHORIO
Palio Chorio is the old capital of Alonissos. Sitting on the top of a hill overlooking the Aegean Sea, Chora is the best place to visit in the island. The narrow paved streets, the stone-built houses full of flowers, the picturesque courtyards and the stone-roofed churches enchant every visitor. The highest point of Palio Chorio is "The Castle".
