Kefalonia
|
|
The Paliki Peninsula lies on Kefalonia's western side; a stunning mountainous landscape surrounds and protects the small picturesque villages built into its olive, vine, and fir-covered slopes. It is one of the most beautiful places to visit and a must for any tourist. Here many of the local community are farmers and spend much of their time tending to their crops of grapes, olives, figs, citrus fruits and vegetables.
The people of the Paliki are amongst the friendliest on Kefalonia and will often stop tourists to chat or offer you something from their hard day's work in the field. Lixouri is the second largest town on Kefalonia and lies on the Paliki peninsula. Built around a port, it is a modern town with more of a working atmosphere than Argostoli but worth a visit.
