The most interesting island of Greece. Typical and traditional Island with a great nature and friendly people. The island of the mastic and her beautifull villages, like Pyrgi, Mesta, Olymbi and Vessa. I visit Chios now for seven years and have many friends on the island. Take a look at the pictures and i'm sure i will see you on Chios. But please don't come at the same time, because now you can still hear the silence.
