Sophisticated, aristocratic and multifarious, Syros is the administrative center of the Cyclades region, located in the central of it. It is characterised by an urban upper class identity still evident throughout the historical neoclassical mansions and monuments, as a major naval, industrial and cultural center in the history of modern Greece. Symbols of its dual religious hypostasis are the crosses of the Catholic Saint George and the Οrthodox Τemple of Resurrection that adorn the twin hills of Hermoupolis.
