Mithimna

Mythimna is one of the most beautiful and traditional places in Greece. It combines the calm scenery of the olive groves and the harsh landscape of the medieval castle built upon the rock. The solid traditional buildings, made of stone or of painted wood, are situated in a labyrinth of narrow streets. On the other side of the town, there is a picturesque small port that completes this unique image.
