Syros Island, the capital of the Cyclades, combines neoclassical elegance with traditional island charm. The island’s main town, Ermoupoli, is a stunning example of neoclassical architecture, with its grand buildings, marble streets, and the imposing Town Hall. Ano Syros, the old town, offers narrow, winding streets and beautiful views over the Aegean.
