In the mountainous centre of Paros, Lefkes is a gorgeous village settled on the slope at a height of 300 metres.

Not many tourists get up to this place, and you can park outside the village and take a tour with your own two feet on little alleys and pine-shaded squares with tavernas and traditional bakeries.

The Agia Triada Church, built from fine Parian marble and flanked by two majestic belfries, is a good place to begin and has some invaluable Byzantine icons.
