Stepping into a piece of Cuba right here in Sifnos🇬🇷 Kavos Bar, nestled in Kastro, offers stunning views of the Seven Martyrs Church. Its owner, Kostas, fell in love with Cuba during his travels and decided to bring its vibrant spirit to Greece through this charming bar. You can only taste a couple of rum based cocktails while being surrounded by Che Guevara-inspired decor✨ 📍 Kavos Sunrise, Sifnos . . . . #sifnos #europeansummer #greekislands #cyclades #méditerranée #slowtravel #traveltips #greecetravel #greecevacation #mediterraneanlife

My favorite place in Sifnos🌞 Exploring the charming whitewashed streets of Kastro during the day and soaking in the magical views of the Church of the Seven Martyrs was one of the highlights of my trip. At night, the scenery changes and it gets more lively, especially at Kavos, the rum bar, and at Loggia, the wine bar. Perched atop a rocky hill, this unique village, besides being picturesque, is also very old, as it’s been inhabited for over 3000 years. At some point, it was even the capital of the island, probably because of its ideal location. 📍 Kastro, Sinos . . . . #greecetravel #greeksummer #greekislandhopping #forbestravelguide #mediterraneanlife #europeanvibes #traveltips #europeansummer #greecevacation #mediterraneanlove #cntraveler #map_of_europe #greeceislands #summertrip #mykonos #santorini #sifnos

Οι Άγιοι Επτά Παίδες της Εφέσου που κατέφυγον εις σπήλαιον να κρυφθούν από τον διωγμόν των εθνικών, κ’ εκεί εκοιμήθησαν και την επαύριον εξύπνησαν. Επαύριον γι’ αυτούς. Μα εν τω μεταξύ, είχαν παρέλθει σχεδόν δύο αιώνες.

Ξύπνησε την επαύριον και πήγε ένας των, ο Ιάμβλιχος, για ν’ αγοράσει άρτον, κ’ είδεν εμπρός του άλλην Έφεσον, όλην καθηγιασμένη μ’ εκκλησίες, και σταυρούς.

K’ εχάρηκαν οι Άγιοι Επτά Παίδες, και τους ετίμησαν και τους προσκύνησαν οι χριστιανοί κ’ ήλθε κι απ’ την Κωνσταντινούπολιν ο βασιλεύς, ο Θεοδόσιος, ο γιος του Αρκαδίου, και τους προσκύνησεν κι αυτός, ως πρέπον, ο ευλαβέστατος.

Το ποίημα του Κωνσταντίνου Καβάφη «Οι Άγιοι Επτά Παίδες», έργο του 1925, περιλαμβάνεται στο βιβλίο «Κ. Π. Καβάφης, Ατελή Ποιήματα 1918-1932» (Ίκαρος, 1994).

Οι Άγιοι Επτά Παίδες εν Εφέσω (Μαξιμιλιανός, Εξακουστωδιανός, Ιάμβλιχος, Μαρτινιανός, Διονύσιος, Ιωάννης και Κωνσταντίνος) έζησαν τον 3ο αιώνα μ.Χ. Στα χρόνια του ρωμαίου αυτοκράτορα Δεκίου (249-251 μ.Χ.) οι επτά παίδες, αφού διένειμαν όλα τα υπάρχοντά τους στους φτωχούς, εισήλθαν σε μια σπηλιά της Εφέσου, προκειμένου να αποφύγουν την παράδοσή τους στον ειδωλολάτρη ρωμαίο αυτοκράτορα, και παρακάλεσαν το Θεό να τους πάρει κοντά του. Το στόμιο του σπηλαίου σφραγίστηκε κατόπιν εντολής του Δεκίου, και οι επτά παίδες παρέμειναν εκεί εν υπνώσει επί δύο σχεδόν αιώνες.

Όταν, επιτέλους, βγήκαν από το βαθύ ύπνο τους, στα χρόνια του βυζαντινού αυτοκράτορα Θεοδοσίου Β’ του Μικρού (408-450 μ.Χ.), οι επτά παίδες, που δεν είχαν υποστεί καμία φθορά από την πάροδο του χρόνου, είχαν την εντύπωση πως είχαν κοιμηθεί το προηγούμενο μόλις βράδυ. Η είσοδος του σπηλαίου ήταν πλέον ελεύθερη, και ένας από αυτούς μετέβη στην Έφεσο σε αναζήτηση τροφής. Η επαφή του με τους κατοίκους της πόλης αποκάλυψε το συγκλονιστικό γεγονός που είχε λάβει χώρα, κι όλοι έσπευσαν με δέος στο σπήλαιο, για να συναντήσουν τους αγίους και να γίνουν κοινωνοί του θαύματος που είχε συντελεστεί.

Τελικά, οι Άγιοι Επτά Παίδες, καταπονημένοι από τις ατέλειωτες συνομιλίες που επακολούθησαν, έκλεισαν τα μάτια τους, έγειραν το κεφάλι τους στο πλάι και αποκοιμήθηκαν. Ο ύπνος τους θα διαρκέσει αυτήν τη φορά έως την ημέρα της κοινής αναστάσεως των νεκρών.

Ένα και μόνον από τα αμέτρητα θρησκευτικά μνημεία της Σίφνου, του νησιού των Δυτικών Κυκλάδων με τις εκατοντάδες εκκλησιές, είναι αφιερωμένο στους επτά αγίους της Εφέσου.

Το γραφικό εκκλησάκι των Επτά Μαρτύρων (Εφταμάρτυρος), χτισμένο στην κορυφή ενός βράχου που μοιάζει να αναδύεται από τους αφρούς της θάλασσας, βρίσκεται στο ανατολικό άκρο του Κάστρου, της παλαιάς πρωτεύουσας του νησιού, με τα ερείπια της ακρόπολης της αρχαίας Σίφνου και τον περίφημο...

The church of the Seven Martyrs is a beautiful picturesque church located on top of a small hill, surrounded by a sea of its three sides, and without a doubt one of the most famous sites on the charming island Sifnos. The church is located at the foot of the beautiful village Kastro, which was the island's capital many years ago and it is connected with it with a nice path that winds along the slope. Do not miss a visit to the narrow alleys of the village, with its whitewashed houses, the picturesque sidewalks, the cafes and the small taverns. Breathe the clean air, enjoy the warmth of the charming and welcoming residents and the beauty and serenity of this...

Absolutely breathtaking view of this hilltop church overlooking the ocean. Only a very short walk down a relatively steep set of stairs to get all the way down and hardly anyone here even in the height of summer. If this near perfect spot was on another island like Santorini it would be mobbed at all times. Truly beautiful.

Parking in Kastro is very limited, if you cannot find a spot on the incline towards the top of the town you may need to park in the parking area at the bottom but it’s very walkable but quite steep.

Wander through the nearby Cycladic homes and laneways around for a nearly empty and unobstructed view of the town even I. Summer...
