Parga is a beautiful coastal town located in the northwestern part of Greece. It is situated in the prefecture of Preveza, in the region of Epirus, and is known for its stunning natural beauty and rich cultural heritage.
Parga is a popular tourist destination in Greece, as it is situated on a stunning bay surrounded by lush green hills. The town is built around the Venetian castle of Parga which overlooks the bay and provides a spectacular view of the Ionian Sea. The town is also known for its picturesque streets, lined with colorful houses and cobbled alleys, and the beautiful beaches which are a great spot for swimming, sunbathing and other outdoor activities.
The history of Parga is closely linked to the Venetian occupation of the area. The Venetians built the castle and the town around it in the 13th century, and it was an important stronghold for the Venetian Republic. Parga was also a major naval base and port for Venetian ships, and was a key part of the Venetian defense system against the Ottomans.
In the 19th century, Parga was occupied by the Ottomans, but the town was liberated in 1913 by the Greek army. Since then, the town has become a popular destination for tourists and is known for its vibrant nightlife and lively festivals.
Parga is a great destination for those looking for a relaxing holiday in a stunning location. The town offers a great combination of natural beauty, historical sites and a lively atmosphere.
