Kaiser Observatory, also known as Kaiser’s Throne, stands majestically on a rocky platform, offering a breathtaking panoramic view.

​

This observatory, which overlooks the pinnacle of the Pelekas settlement, is the final and most intricate creation of Kaiser Wilhelm II, the philhellenic emperor of Germany.

Perched on a lush green hill overlooking the beach of Paleokastritsa on the northwestern coast of Corfu, there is an impressive monastery complex dedicated to Panagia, or the Virgin Mary.

 

This majestic monastery commands the surrounding area and, situated on a secluded hill, it provides breathtaking views of the island and the shimmering sea.

The village of Lakones is a picturesque settlement located near the cosmopolitan region of Paleokastritsa in western Corfu. This charming village offers breathtaking views of the landscape, the Ionian Sea, and the bay of Paleokastritsa, perched at an elevation of over 180 meters above sea level!

​

As you stroll through the village, you'll meander along narrow cobbled streets, taking in the sight of retro buildings, churches, and historic houses, most of which date back to the 18th and 19th centuries!
