Indeed, the rapid growth of tourism in recent years has expanded its reputation well beyond the borders of Greece. When visiting a Cycladic architecture village or town for the first time, one feels as if they are within an enchanting stage set.
The early Cycladic architecture builders employed the same simple yet bold style that distinguished the artists who crafted Cycladic idols some 5,000 years ago. With the genuine and unspoiled intuition of folk artists, these craftsmen constructed buildings that catered not only to the everyday needs of the inhabitants but also to the beauty and elegance of the Cycladic landscape.
Public squares are rarely found in Cycladic architecture villages. Typically, public spaces in settlements are quite limited. The common area is often the street, with its exceptionally well-balanced building facades.
