Dec./09 Mountain Village--Apiranthos

Apiranthos, the oldest mountain village on Naxos, about 26 kil.
from the harbour of Hora. Known for its citrus (lemons, oranges...
it is famous for its citrus liquor.

Apiranthos, with its streets, passageways made of white
Naxian marble, some of which have become very sloped
due to ....time. A lot more algae and we saw not one
tourist. We bought walnuts and a hard cheese that was
fantastic grated onto spaghetti.
