Kanoni, once the capital and heart of the Greek island of Corfu, is now a quarter of Corfu Town, the island’s modern-day capital. This historic area boasts several notable landmarks, including the 17th-century church of Panagia Vlacherna, the elegant Mon Repos Palace, and the Byzantine Church of St. Jason and St. Sosipatros. While Kanoni has only two beaches, visitors can explore its rich cultural and historical sites, each offering a glimpse into the island’s past. The area’s blend of architectural and religious heritage makes it a fascinating destination for those interested in Corfu’s history.
