62 km north-west of the city of Ioannina you can
find Papigo, probably the most idyllic area in the region of Zagori. The
two villages - the Mikro (Small) and the Megalo (Big) Papigo - are built
using locally sourced stone, and the traditional architecture of Zagori.
Ôhey were both nominated as preservation zones by the Ministry of Culture.
For your stay
In Megalo Papigo, you can find the
IOANNIDIS Traditional Pension.
It has been a
pension since 1980, based upon specifications laid down by the Greek Tourism
Organization. It was built prior to 1813, and has been fully renovated
inside, with all respect to its special character.
Its privileged location offers a great view not only of the village, but
also of the imposing mass of the Astraka mountain: and when the weather
is good enough, there is nothing better than a delicious cup of coffee
in the garden!
