Today the fortress houses the Public Library of Corfu, as well as the Hellenic Music Research Lab of the Ionian University, and is much loved & cherished manument by the islands people.
As we start cruising again, we approach the old Venetian fortress of Corfu, once the islands protector against the and the Turks, successfully repulsing three ottoman sieges.
Moving towards Corfu Town and Garitsa bay, we see the luxurious yachts moored and dotted across the bay, a perfect time to enjoy a glass of wine and watch the sun set if your cruise is in the afternoon hours.
We soon reach the infamous Pontikonisi, Greek for “Mouse Island” where we see airplanes landing and taking off from Corfu airport nearby. Another natural beauty is of course Vlacherna Monastry, an iconic point of the island, and one of the most photographed buildings in Corfu. It’s distinguished by its unusual shape, and pedestrian walkway that connects it to the mainland.
Finally, we reach Kaiser bridge, an architectural masterpiece, that is still preserved not only as a symbol of architectural significance but also of imperial vanity.
