Island with history: sights in Kefalonia
Over the millennia, Kefalonia has seen many conquerors come and go. You can still see the Venetian influence today in the architecture and the cuisine. An excellent example is the Assos Castle on western Kefalonia. It was built on a hill in 1585 and offers a magnificent panoramic view of Myrtos Bay with one of the most attractive pebble-sand beaches in Greece.
