Right in front of Kanoni lies probably the most famous attraction of Corfu, the islet where the church of Panagia of Vlacherna is located, which is connected to the mainland by a narrow strip of land.
A little further away, but clearly visible, stands the famous Pontikonisi, on which the small church of the Pantocrator of the 11th-12th century can be admired. Other important attractions are the Palaces of Michael and George (Georgian style), arguably some the most beautiful palaces left behind by the British. As far as the local cuisine is concerned, the most notable traditional dishes of Corfiot cuisine are “pastitsada”, “sofrito” and “burdeto”.
