Kerkyra Corfu - Insider's guide to Kerkyra city

Corfu Kerkyra

A colourful mix of cultural influences and marvellous blend of architecture make Corfu Town a fascinating place to explore, with its spacious squares, French arcade, traditional Venetian mansions, Byzantine church, British-built 19th-century palace and numerous monuments.
There is also the old fortress jutting into the sea to the E, cut off from the town by a moat. The town has an atmosphere reminiscent of an Italian town, as shopping streets alternate with narrow alleys and washing hangs from balconies. With a population of 45,000, almost trebled with visitors in the high season, the town bulges with the influx of tourists and traffic jams are frequent ? pedestrian areas provide a welcome escape
