Here follows a small introduction to the Aegina:
<br />
<br />
Like many other Greek islands, the capital Aegina takes its name from the name
of the island itself and is situated on the Western Side of the Island.
Aegina town with its population of just over 6,000 is a thriving working port
and is in fact, the second largest in Greece after Piraeus.
On approaching Aegina town by sea, the first sight people see is that of the
small and picturesque church of Aghios Nikolaos which sits on a jetty on the
waterfront. The harbour was built by Capodistrias using the stones from the ruins
of Kolona.
At the edge of the town stand several classical mansions, along with a number
of buildings constructed after the liberation of Greece in 1828. To the left
of the port is the hill of Kolona, upon which are the remains of the temple of
Apollo which, after being struck by lightening, now amounts to only a single
column.
<br />
<br />
The best way to see <a href="villages/aegina.htm">Aegina town</a> is perhaps to wander through the back streets
during the day where you will see unique buildings, such as the tower of Markellos,
which was occupied by the Governing Committee of Greece during its reign as the
Capital. You will also notice an array of colourful flowers in the small courtyards
of many of the resident's houses.
If you want to travel a little out of the town; about 3 kms from the town in
the village of Livadi is the "House of Kazantzakis" where the famous Greek author
lived for many years between the two World wars. It was here that he wrote his
most famous novel: "Zorba the Greek".
<br />
<br />
There is also an Archeological Museum in the town which contains artifacts from
the Island's history. The opening hours vary, but the Museum can be contacted
by phone on (+30) 22970 22637.
After this, you may feel like taking a break for a Greek coffee and baklava or
kataifi at one of the <a href="fooddrinks/aeginatown.htm">Tavernas</a> on the waterfront. It is possible to while away
many hours there whilst watching the boats unload the fruit and vegetables brought
in from the Peloponnese.
In the evening, these same Tavernas serve a wide array of Greek dishes, and for
an Ouzo (or two !), the local Ouzeri/Cafenion takes some beating - simply relax
with an Ouzo and take in one of the most spectacular sunsets in the whole of
Greece.
