Ferra (also known as Scylla) is the capital of santorini Island, an Aegean island. The town was built on the edge of a 400-meter-high volcano in the west of santorini Island. The scenery is quite spectacular. The walls of the houses in the town are all white, and the roofs are dark blue, blending with the sky and the sea. When you take a picture, it is a postcard. The bustling tourist center, Feila, is not only a traditional residential area, but also a commercial and tourist center of santorini Island, which is very prosperous. The town has convenient transportation and many hotels. From here, there are buses that go directly to Yiya Town, Black Beach and Red Beach, which can be said to be the transit station of Shengdao. Every peak season in July, August and September, it is basically crowded with tourists, many of whom are newlyweds who come here for their honeymoon.

Blue church

As a postcard-like landmark of santorini, there are actually many blue-topped churches in santorini, but the most famous one, which appeared in National Geographic magazine, is Santa Maria Church in the town of Fila, which is located on the seaside path between Fila and Filostafani. The blue dome church is very small, on the hillside by the sea, so from the town of Ferra, you can see the classic combination of white buildings, blue dome and blue sea. It is not only a destination for tourists from the Holy Island, but also a classic background scenery for taking wedding photos. The sun rises at eight or nine o'clock in the morning and dusk at six or seven o'clock in the afternoon, which is the best time to shoot the church.
