Chios is full of medieval villages, wildly beautiful beaches, diverse landscape, and the “miraculous” mastic trees. The island is located along the edge of the beautiful Aegean Sea and is one the area’s most unspoiled and unexplored islands, with hidden treasures, surprises, and secrets wherever visitors look. Around 20 medieval villages can be found in the southern end of the islands, with Mesta and Pyrgi being especially noteworthy. Patrika, Nenita, Armolia, and Vessa are also worth a short visit. The narrow roads of Kambos can also be interesting to explore, with their ornate doors, beautiful arches, and tall stone walls.
