Paros is a tourists’ favorite for  its valleys, its beautiful coastline, its white houses and the hospitality it offers.
The island’s capital, Parikia, being built at the same location where its ancient predecessor was, full of flower scents and its beauty intact can mystify any tourist. 

The church Katapoleane (or Ekatontapyliani) near the centre of the city, is one of the most important Byzantine monuments in Greece. Dedicated to Holy Mary’s death, it is connected to many myths and the 15th of August religious holiday.
