What I really liked about the island of Naxos was the aura of mystery the place exudes. It is said, for example, that Zeus spent his childhood here, and that this is where Theseus abandoned Ariadne, who was then retrieved by Dionysus (who is also supposed to have been born on this island). Be sure to take some time to find out more about the history of the island and learn about the fascinating myths and legends associated with it.
Naxos, the highest point of which is just under 3,300 ft above sea level, continues to attract visitors in increasing numbers. The architectural heritage and picturesque landscapes and scenery the island has to offer, however, make the visit here well worth the trip. You'll be pleasantly surprised by the Venetian style architecture and the chiseled, abrupt appearance of the mountains. Naxos makes for a pleasant place to visit and spend some time during a trip to Greece. Additionally, the fertile countryside here presents a landscape replete with numerous vegetable patches, olive groves and orchards.
