A beautiful Greek Orthodox cathedral up from the harbour and 3 min from Miaouli square Syros is an interesting island as 2 religions are practised - Orthodox and Catholic and both have a strong presence although St Nick in Ano Syros is definitely the “poor” - small, with much less adornment. Back to Ermoupolis and St Nick Ploussios had quite a bit of money donated by the wealthy ship owners business and govt to build and adorn after liberation from Ottoman occupation - marble abounds as it does in all of Ermoupolis. grand mansions, opera house and churches. The bishopric for the Cyclades is in Syros as well Beautiful lead light, sculpture of Christ, Icons by renown iconographers and monks from Mt Argos. At the top of stairs under the verandah is a large iron bell - probably from a ship Wonderful bright colors in ceiling - highly decorative in many ways quite showy and beautiful Stands alone in the square with a rather nice garden with some palm trees among the plants and statues on plinths Well worth going in an admiring this church

We had an amazing time in the Kitchen with Elisa. Was a busy day, cooked 7 excellent dishes and got great tips about cooking in general. Elisa is very well organised, no wasted time! In the evening we all relaxed and enjoyed the food paired with wine. Was a very enjoyable experience and will go back for sure!

This museum is such a great find in the island of Syros, it showcases the history of industry in Syors and the electric car is a highlight. The guide (older gentleman) is the best ever as he is passionate and very informative. He made the tour interesting and brought in some humor. There were plenty of artifacts laid out to document the history of Syros. Definitely a must to see when visiting Syros and a hidden gem

A place for reflection, no matter what your religious beliefs happen to be. The high backed seats with a plaque "Andron" - Men amused me.
