Achilleion Palace (Gastouri)
Like many famous landmarks in Greece, the architecture of Corfu’s iconic Achilleion Palace was inspired by Greek mythology and thus it features a magnificent statue of Achilles and a great number of Greek-inspired statues and monuments. Having been built by Sissy, the Empress of Austria, who was in love with Greek culture, the palace’s beautifully-landscaped gardens and the stunning views that offers make it one of the most recognizable and photographed landmarks of Corfu.
