Our first stop is Armolia Village, famous for its handmade ceramics. Here we take a short break in a ceramic shop and see the mastic trees.
Next, we visit Mesta, one of the best-preserved castle-villages from the Middle Ages to the present day. We walk through its narrow streets resembling a labyrinth, take a coffee break in the village square, and visit the Taxiarchis Church.
Afterwards, we move to Pyrgi Village, famous for its geometric-patterned houses. Our guide provides information about the special decoration technique known as "Xysta".

Our first stop is the historic four windmills by the sea, one of the island's symbols, Tabakika. Here we take a photo break with a view of the Aegean Sea.
Next, we move to Daskalopetra, believed to be where Homer wrote his works. This rocky area was turned into a school by students in the 6th century BC and is one of the most important historical and cultural sites of the island.
We take our lunch break in Lagada, a charming fishing village. We have the opportunity to experience fresh seafood, mezes, and local flavors at seaside taverns.
On the return journey, we take a photo break at Agios Isidoros Church, one of the iconic structures of Chios Island, located above the sea. According to legend, it is said that mastic is associated with this saint.
