Hala says
The medieval inland village at the highest point on Santorini: climb up through the labyrinth to the Venetian castle at the top, with a 360° view across the whole caldera, Akrotiri, Perissa, the open Aegean. Less photographed and less crowded than the Oia sunset, with better light on the white houses. Pair it with dinner at Botargo (the 18th-century mansion in the Kasteli), or Selene if it's back in Pyrgos by the time you go.
