Tinos Town Tour
Don’t judge a book by its cover
There’s no better example of this old saying than Tinos Town.
Though, at first glance, it doesn’t look like your typical Cycladic postcard, you’ll be amazed by the captivating beauty and fascinating legacy hidden behind the waterfront.
Aristocratic mansions, marble fountains, and Venetian-style architecture unfold along a scenic walk, while a glimpse of the historic textile school for girls and the boys’ church school adds to the town’s unique charm.
Behold the island’s most iconic hallmark, the imposing Church of the Virgin Mary, and experience the deep religious atmosphere that made Tinos a worldwide center of Orthodoxy. Miraculous icons, precious offerings, religious relics, devout pilgrims, and wondrous stories portray the Greek religious tradition.
Tinos Town has a lot more to offer than a stroll through traditional Cycladic scenery and awaits to be discovered.
