My favorite place in my heart, Fira Village, Santorini💙🩵🤍
Fira Village, my favorite in my heart, better than Oia Village in Santorini that everyone praises as beautiful💖
My favorite village in Santorini, boasting beautiful sky colors and views from the brightly-lit morning and day, to the evening when the sunset begins to fade, to the dark night :)
The time I especially recommend is from 4pm when the sun starts to set to the night when you can see the amazing night view❗️ I spent the whole day in Fira Village from morning to night, and it was so romantic and nice to sit in a pub with a nice view around sunset and have a cocktail with my friends, loved ones, and precious family👍🏻✨
I hope you all visit my beloved Fira Village, which makes even romances bloom! I recommend that you take a quick photo in Oia Village and spend more time in Fira Village🙏🏻

Santorini's largest shopping district, Fira Village🏘️
Personally, I liked Fira Village more than Oia Village in Santorini💖
I stayed in Santorini for a short time and liked it so much that I came here twice. There are more diverse foods, things to see, and scenery than Oia Village, so it would be nice to sit at a restaurant and order delicious food and just sit there all day! I especially recommend trying traditional Greek beer and food here :) The restaurants seemed to be cheaper than Iana or other beaches!
The white buildings, rock cliffs, and ocean waves create such a beautiful landscape, so go and enjoy the delicious food, scenery, and atmosphere✨

Sunset Restaurant Santorini Fira Village🌅
This is Fira Village in Santorini, where you can see a really pretty view when you go at sunset :) It is said to be the second most famous village in Santorini after Oia Village, which we are familiar with👍🏻💓
Fira Village in Santorini, where there are many things to see and enjoy, with various souvenir shops, delicious restaurants, and sunset views✨
The bus depot is also located in Fira Village, so it is a village that you must visit no matter which tourist destination you are going to🚐
