municipality, as well as all the residents,
are happy to serve you so that when the time of your departure
comes, leaving from here, we will renew our appointment for
the next summertime.
Megalohori (Milos): The capital of the island, was from the ancientest
years the centre of operations of boats and the point of supply.
Blue, crystal waters between natural gulves create grittiness
regions for the bathers. Traditional tile-floor paths, traditional
cafes, aged figures with local
costumes and the unique windmill, contribute to their existence
in the lively history of place. Houses made from Stone, white
terraces, tiled-roofs, cottage-spoon
ovens, cleared up courtyards, are meeting the ultramodern hotel units.
The Cafe-bar, ouzo selling restaurant, restaurants and Night Club
wait for entertaining and serve you in the best way. Beyond and above the Megalohori,
in the piny forest, the church of Agion Panton stands there in the
passage of years and calls the visitor to learn the roots of the
island, the Kantounti, which means "the old village", that has
remained from the ancienter settlement of Agistri. Leaving from
the Megalohori's westwards, is found a breathtaking landscape that
combines in absolute harmony green of pine with deep blue sea.
Trees that with the pass of time ageing in the sea and embrace
almost waters and the ships in the old careenage reveal the
hundreds years that are found there. The recently asphalt roadway
road network leads us more westwards of the island there that the
plates write Dragonera. Apart from the unique canteen that exists
here all the rest have remained untouched. Crystal waters,
natural coasts, pines up to the sea, quietness is only a part of
offer of wealth that gives us the nature generously. And the road continues to the southerners, ascends-descends
and reaches in a clearing, an oasis full of
history for the elder and optical magic for the visitors. This is the
Polemi with the old church of Agia Barbara that had the chance to
be consecrated by Agjos Nektarios.
