Very close to the coast of Turkey, literally a stone's throw from it, is located Lesbos, the "muse" of the Northeastern Aegean. Mytilene, the capital of Lesbos, is really the jewel of the island. In fact, it is so greatly important for the island, that many are confused and refer to the whole of Lesbos under the name "Mytilene". Lesbos, with its capital, Mytilene, is the third largest island in Greece and will enchant you with its rare natural beauty. The birthplace of Sappho and Alcaeus, the painter Theophilos, as well as the novelist Stratis Myrivilis, Lesbos, apart from its rich and heavy artistic heritage, is also famous for its ouzo. Wander around Mytilene, locate one of the many taverns of the city, sit back and enjoy traditional ouzo with delicacies that will delight you! Mytilene is a place out of a painting - built amphitheatrically, among seven beautiful, verdant hills that end up in its natural harbor, the city consists of old neighborhoods and picturesque suburbs, while its neoclassical buildings and archaeological monuments bear witness to the rich heritage of the island. Wonderful mansions, stone houses and impressive churches complete the picturesque scenery of the city, while many cafes and taverns are located along the waterfront with stunning sea views and delicious dishes from the local cuisine of Lesbos. Apart from its historical aspect, Mytilene is considered a perfect choice for relaxing holidays, both for couples and families with children. The "heart" of Mytilene, its historic center, is ready to offer you numerous options for food and entertainment, so that you can get to know the place better through the eyes of the locals. And of course, we can't help but talk about the wonderful pristine beaches of the island, with their crystal clear blue waters, which will give you unique moments of relaxation and tranquility.
