About this experience

Churches in Kostos is a self-guided walking tour of the historic churches clustered in the inland village of Kostos on Paros. The route includes the 17th-century Church of Agios Georgios and the whitewashed Church of Panagia, both built from local marble and stone. Visitors follow narrow village lanes between the churches, which remain active places of worship with regular services.

What to expect

  • Walking route covers approximately 1.5 kilometres and takes 45 to 60 minutes at a relaxed pace
  • Entry to each church is free, with doors open during daylight hours for individual prayer and viewing
  • Visitors see original iconostases, carved wooden altars, and 18th-century fresco fragments inside the main churches
  • The route passes the village's marble fountain and two small chapels dedicated to Agios Nikolaos and Agia Anna
  • Suitable for adults and older children who can manage uneven stone paths and a few gentle inclines
  • The tour works best in the morning or late afternoon when church bells ring and local residents attend services
