The settlement’s thoroughfare is the centre of attraction with its small shops, taverns, cafés and bars. As mountains planted with centuries old pine trees surround the village, clear mountain fresh air with the aroma from the pine trees is the main trait of the region. Three km off the village, there stands a magnificent church dedicated to Saint Nektarius, a very popular venue for weddings and christening services as it is large and very picturesque. You can find many icons and frescos inside-well worth stopping here.

Kalimnos or Kalymnos
This island of barren rock, golden beaches and tiny green valleys owes its fame to its celebrated sponge fishers. This is the main profession for men on the island, and the theme for many local dances and folk songs. Sponge-fishing means a yearly excursion to the seas off the North African coast. Sponge-fishers of Kalymnos leave with their boats every spring.
