Bochali it is a lovely and small village at the top of the promontory rising at the back of the city of Zakynthos. Keeping the sea at your right, once passed the chief town, there is an inner road going up and once passed the Nautical Museum you turn left going up till you reach Bochali.   Reaching the place is very easy, not so easy to park, but we believe it is really worth especially at sunset or at night when the landscape of the enlighten city and the harbour bay are really beautiful. In spite of the small dimensions of the village there are different restaurants offering a romantic dinner under the stars. Bochali is worth visiting even by day to take pictures of the small church of Zoodos Pigi with its Byzantine icons, or of the huge pinewood with ancient Venetian castle. The castle, partly destroyed by the earthquake that in 1953 devastated the island, must be visited during your holidays even because from there the 360° view allows the visitor to see in one time both coasts of the Island.
