Origin of Shopping Street Names in Corfu, Greece

Two of Corfu’s main shopping corridors honor 18th century scholars who had parallel careers. The street with the high-end brands is Evgeniou Voulgareos, named after Eugenios Voulgaris (1716 – 1806). This woman is window shopping through the arches along Nikiforou Theotoki. Its namesake is Nikephoros Theotokis (1731-1800). Both religious leaders were born in Corfu, were prominent Greek Orthodox teachers and archbishops in Russia.
