A walk through Corfu Town often feels like walking through a film set.

In a town where planning seems to have been the last thing they worried about, narrow streets open out onto oddly shaped plazas, distinctly Mediterranean in their style. Small mansions with bougainvillea-framed secret gardens, give way to tall buildings, all painted in colours chosen from the Corfu “palette”. Winding stone steps lead up onto vantage points with breathtaking views. Dotted around the town, remnants of the massive old city walls, revoke images of battles long past but not forgotten, and impressive moss covered Venetian fortifications tower over the city, now giving more protection from the sun than the pirates that might have once tried to raid it.
