Kardiani in Tinos |
Kardiani - about 14 kilometres west of Tinos town - is one of the most beautiful villages I've ever visited.
![]() Kardiani. You can see Syros in the distance from the village. Down on the coast, one can glimpse the beaches of Kalivia and Giannaki.
Kardiani is the large diamond among the many beautiful villages on Tinos. A marvel with a location so beautiful that it is hard to believe that it is true. To get into the village itself, you walk down via a steep steps from the parking lot. I can assure you that it is not the only steps in the village.
One of many beautiful alleys in Kardiani. |
The ancient labyrinthine alleys winds like snakes through the village, sometimes you pass under wonderful stone arches and you are constantly discovering new alleys. The dominant white colour is sometimes changed to a green lushness. A stream runs through parts of the village in springtime, the purling sound is very calming.
Café in Kardiani.
There is a small cafe and a taverna in the village. The taverna has to my knowledge not open during the low season, the tiny cafe on the other hand is open year round. Beautiful views can be enjoyed from the church at the top right of the village. |
