The Ionian Islands region
Corfu Town is just thirty minutes drive away from the 'Elysium' apartments, and simply must be seen when visiting the island. There is a wealth of architectural heritage to be seen reminding visitors of the many nations that have historically fought for the occupancy of the tiny island for thousands of past years due to its strategic location. Although the remaining architecture is largely Venetian, there are still many French and British influences to be found, giving the town a truly cosmopolitan feel and as such is widely recognised to be one of the most remarkable centres throughout Greece.
