One of the most interesting places on the island of Santorini, which you should definitely visit, is the small picturesque town of Megalochori. It is located in the southern part of the island, about 9-10 km from its administrative center, Fira, and is rightfully considered one of the most beautiful villages in Santorini.

Since ancient times, Megalochori and its surroundings have been the heart of the Santorini wine industry , therefore, it is not surprising that the welfare of the city's residents since its foundation in the 17th century has been based on the production and sale of wine, the lion's share of which was exported, and two hundred years ago the products of local wineries were well known far beyond the borders of modern Greece ... And today the residents of the city still honor and carefully preserve their traditions, and then go to the central city square - a favorite place for both Megalochori residents and its guests. Here you will find some great restaurants and taverns where you can relax while enjoying the local cuisine.
