Go ahead to Kanoni, home to one of Corfu’s most photographed spots: the church of Panagia Vlacherna with Mouse Island (Pontikonissi) just offshore. Descend the steps to the small chapel, connected to the islet by a narrow 300-meter causeway. Optional boat rides (5 minutes) are available for a closer view of the lush green island, whose mythology links it to Ulysses’ legendary voyage. The chapel’s wooden-carved iconostasis and frescoes add a touch of artistry and history to this picturesque location
