<\/p>\nZakynthos town is the capital and harbor of the island, along with its commercial hub and heart of entertainment. It is located on the slope of Bochali hill, which is home to one of the loveliest forests on the island. At the same time, the ruins of a Venetian Castle allow travelers to take a glimpse at the island\u2019s glorious past and gaze at the mesmeric view from atop. A splendid experience, feeling the salty breeze fondling your cheeks gently and caressing your hair. A rejuvenating hike, no more than 15 minutes on foot to the hill \u2013 and well worth it!<\/p>\n

At Zakynthos Town, there is much to see and do. This is the heart of the island, with many caf\u00e9s and restaurants offering spectacular, mouth-watering delicacies for you. Sip on Greek coffee and relish some traditional treats, savory and sweet. Or wait till sunset and start drinking cocktails, as the sun melts away and falls into the sea. There are many souvenir shops for you to choose what will remind you of Zakynthos (as if you could ever forget it!). And lots of gifts for your loved ones!<\/p>\n
