Egialia: a destination so much to see and do
Travellers looking for something different fall in love with its exceptional architecture, rich cultural heritage, natural beauty and aura of authenticity. It has an otherness that seems both distant yet deeply familiar.
Egialia boasts a plethora of elating offerings: Rich colours, imposing mansions, ancient sites as well as hubs of modern history. Historic cities and traditional villages. Dreamy beaches and verdant mountains. A natural scenery ideal for excursions to get your adrenaline pumping.
Myths and traditions weave the fabric of this region and time stops: At the icon of Panagia (Virgin Mary) Vrefokratousa of Tripiti. At the Zarouchla station. At the seats of the ancient theatre of Aigeira. Outside the raisin warehouses at the beach of Aegio.
