Plaka
Plaka 848 00, Greece
Built from the ancient stones of its fortress, 220 m above sea level, the capital city of Milos is famous for its Cycladic beauty and its romantic sunsets. Walking at the old neighborhoods with the cobbled streets, the quaint small shops and the chalk-white houses with the blossoming yards, you will feel the aura of times long gone, yet the lovely stores, speakeasies and restaurants of the area will bring you back to the present. Gazing at the sunset from the Venetian Castle and Mesa Panagia church on the top of the hill or from the marble-paved yard of Panagia Korfiatissa church on the edge of the cliff against the backdrop of the Aegean, is a must-do at Plaka. The same applies for a visit to the Archaeological Museum, where an exact replica of Venus di Milo is on permanent display. Plaka is 4.5 km away from the port of Adamas.
