Hala says

The Byzantine-Venetian cliff-fortress on its own tied islet: the Lower Town holds the 13th-century churches and one taverna (Matoula), the Upper Town a 20-minute climb up to the ruined acropolis. No cars; you park at the causeway and walk in. Sleep inside the walls a night, because the daytrippers clear out at 6 p.m. and the place turns into somewhere else entirely.
