Around 10 kilometers from Corfu town center, the small traditional village of Gastouri rises to an altitude of 77 meters and has just under a thousand inhabitants. It is most famous for being home to the beautiful Achilleion palace, where Sissi lived (the real one, far less luminous than the one immortalized by Romy Schneider). Perched on the heights of Gastouri, the Achilleion dominates the bay. On the horizon, lushly vegetated cliffs tumble down to the emerald sea and a cove hemmed in foam. All around, Italian-style gardens are filled with mythological figures. You can also stroll through the village, which boasts five pretty churches.
