When in Syros, specifically Hermoupolis it’s well worth a trip to Ano Syros to experience the terrific views over the city and the Aegean as well as the Chuches that are either en route or at Ano itself. A good Giorgios Church is a fine example and restored to some of the former glory it held all those years ago. Great sight and a must if you are fit enough to walk to Giorgios.

Ano Syros is beuitiful, you can drive most of the way up and then there is a lovely walk up steps and winding paths with magnificent views of Ermpoulis and the port. The quant houses and building on the walk are lovely. The church is grand and looks amazing inside and out. There is such a lovely tranquil feeling there.

Worthwhile visiting. Take a taxi up to church then walk down. Interesting catholic church and stunning views. Walk down the steps through the ancient walkways, greeting locals sitting on their wee balconies that you pass by very closely, through the narrow alleyways, and the very small village, maybe stop for a coffee and admire the scenery and views, before carrying on down to the town centre. It’s an interesting and pleasurable walk of about 1.5 km (downhill) in the early evening when it’s not quite so hot.

Visited Ano Siros and local kids had been voluntarily trained to give tours; super sweet and super helpful. St George church is the biggest Catholic church in the village. It's beautiful and has been redecorated 3 times. Local folklore says that it was meant to be built on the other side, but every night, the building materials would be magically transferred to the hill it is now, showing that it was St George's will to be built there and not across the hill. Definitely worth visiting, the sculptures and the images are breathtaking and it's at a very nice location.

Lovely! Located on top of Ani Syra this is the Catholic Cathedral of the island. Needs restoration but still enjoyed the visit. Spectacular view!

We walked to the church from the harbour front. Lovely church and distinctly different from the Greek Orthodox Churches. Well worth a visit if you are in Syros.

The walk from the harbour is worth it for the views you get from outside this beautiful church.
The church has been restored and is a "must see" when visiting Ano Syros.

This charming church is place up on the hill overlooking the city, placed in a strategic area in one of the oldest settlements on the island. A magnificent view.

A short taxi ride from the port will take you Ano Syros where you will find this lovely little church. Even if your not religious it is worth going for the spectacular views and to see the village with small.narrow streets and houses. There are also a few shops and places to stop for a drink and something to eat
