Napier Gardens in Argostoli
An unexpected paradise in the center of Argostoli, Napier Gardens is a small but beautiful park located right above the main square. After recent renovation, it has been outfitted with cobblestone pathways, benches, picnic tables, and light fixtures so that the space may be enjoyed by visitors into the late hours of the day. The land on which the park was developed once belonged to the island’s British administrator, Sir Charles James Napier, who purchased the hill in the late 1820s and subsequently donated it to the Municipality of Argostoli.
