Lesvos (or Lesbos) is the third largest island of Greece and has a long
history that goes back more than 3.000 years. It has been the birthplace of
famous people, such as the poets Sappho and Alcaeos, Arion the Guitarist,
and Pittacus, one of the seven wise men of ancient Greece. A tradition that
even continues today and gives the island that distinctive atmosphere which
makes it so different from the rest. Sappho's reputation as a lover of her
own sex, has given the word "Lesbian" an international currency. Her
reputation is based on some of the fragments of her poetry: "I was in love
with you once, Atthis, long ago..."

Petra
Rich in olives and fish, the island has an economic balance rare in the
Aegean and because of its relative prosperity the island is very easy for
travellers to reach even in the quiet months of winter. By air, one can get
to Lesbos from Athens three times a day and from Salonica three times a
week. By Ferry-boat, one can reach Lesbos every day from Piraeus, and from
Salonica on a less frequent schedule.
(Organic & extra virgin olive oil, ouzo, feta & kafalotyri cheese, dairy
products, pottery, ceramics, stitleed fish, wood carving, traditional sauces
and marmalades are produced, sold & exported by some of the companies
above).
Mytilene is the capital of the island and has a population of 30,000 people.
This is about one third of the total population of the island. It is built
amphitheatrically around its well preserved Byzantine Castle. Not very far
from there, on the north-east side of town, one can find the Hellenistic
Theatre with its superb acoustics and capacity of 10,000 people. Further in
the suburb of Varia one can visit the Theophilos Museum.
Twelve kilometers from Mytilene, near the town of Moria, one can visit the
Roman Aqueduct that was built in the second century AD. Going further up
north by the east coast, thru a series of beautiful little villages one will
arrive in the town of Mantamados, famous for its cheeses and the fine
pottery. The next stop will be Skala Sikaminias, one of the most charming
fishing villages one would ever see.
55 km from the capital of Mitilini, and 5 km before the Town of Molivos,
one finds Petra, this village has a marvellous sundy beach 2Km in length.
Homeland of a lot of painters and scholars, like Kazazis, Frilingos,
Mihailidis, Kanellis, Eleftheriadis, etc.
In the centre of village there is a huge rock which stands as a giant and
above on the top the resplendent temple of Virgin Mary of Glykofilousas
(Patron Saint of Petra village) is built, the 114 steps bring you in
altitude of 40 mt. in order to pray and admire the magestic landscape and
the dew of the Aegean Sea.
Another sight is the temple of Saint Nikolaos, preserved monument, the
wooden mansion of Vareltzidenas that is also unique in Lesvos.
In Petra you'll find a post office, banks, hotels rooms to rent, clubs,
bars, restaurants & tavernas. Also you'll find the famous ouzo factory of
Kouroumihali founded in 1884.
Again further south the village of Agia Paraskevi is situated. This
village has a lot of old mansions and is known for the Bull Festival that
has been celebrated since more than two hundred years. Near the village lay
ruins of an ancient temple of Napaios Apollo and the ruins of an Ionian
temple dated from the 3rd century BC. This temple was dedicated to Zeus,
Hera and Dionysos.
In the island's center, not far from Agia Paraskevi, lays the modern town
Kalloni. It is famous for its sardines which are caught in the nearby bay
called the Gulf of Kalloni. On this gulf one will also find the popular
summer resort Skala Kalloni with its beautiful sandy beaches. Also near the
center of the island another well known town is Agiassos.
This town is famous for its pottery. Going further south again we reach the
towns of Plomari and Vatera which have the most superb beaches of the
island. At the western tip of Lesvos, Sigri is a pretty fishing village with
a nice little beach and a castle that goes back to the 18th century. Not far
from there lies the Petrified Forest, dating back fifteen million years.
Finally, not far from Sigri, one will find the town of Eressos. Eressos has
been the birth place of Sappho and Theoprastos. Its port, Skala Eressos, is
a famous resort with a magnificent beach.
As it can be seen from its classical history, its abundance of poets,
musicians, philosophers and lawgivers, was one of the great cultural centers
of the Greek world. It was second perhaps only to Athens, in its influence
if not in its power. As a place for a holiday, for a rest or for quiet work,
LESVOS is HARD to BETTER.
It is big enough to permit that change of scene so necessary if one is to
avoid "island claustrophobia". It has a further advantage that it is easy
from here to take a day trip or excursion (excurssion) to visit Chios or to
explore the coastline of Turkey.
