Archived from groups: alt>travel>greece (more info?)

I am visiting Lesvos in August for 2 weeks with my husband and 14 year old
son. Are there any sites that we should not miss. We will have the use of
a car for 1 week of our stay.

Does anyone know where I can get details of the music events that are
supposedly held in the castle in Mythimna in August?

Hi Tina,

I was in Lesvos last Nov. stayed in Mytilini for 5 days, went on a day
trip to Mythimna/Molyvos lovely town, but do not know much about music
festival in Aug. Might try the Greek National Tourist Organization,
Olympic Tower, 645 Fifth Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10022 Tel.#2l2-421-5777
or try them on the internet.They do give good information and send you
lots of stuff, just takes a while. I have used them in the past and had
good results. Good Luck, you will love Lesvos, very real Greek Island,
not too touristy.

Molyvos is a interesting old town built on a hillside with a harbour at
the bottom and a castle at the top. Beware that all the streets are
very rough cobblestones so sensible shoes are a must. Several years
ago, after spending 2 weeks staying near the castle my feet were cut up
after walking up and down the hill twice a day.

We spent a week in Lesvos in late March and loved it. Mytilini town is a
nice spot to roam-lots of activity and not too touristy.
Molyvos (Mythima) is very nice, more touristy but a long way from the
tourist levels of say Santorini.
We stayed at Mariantha Apartments in Molyvos, Evi the owner couldn't be
nicer.
The other place we really liked was Plomari which is not that far from
Mytilini or anywhere else really! It's a nice little town where we
stayed at Irini Studios, on the water on the edge of town-just perfect
and operated by two young school teachers. She spoke great English. It's
nearly the only place to stay in Plomari, although there some resort
type places outside town near the beach.
Up in the hills there is what they refer to as traditional villages and
I think it was called Agissos we visited and it was very interesting.
Sigi, one of the few places we didn't go, is said to be
nice-small/quaint/very scenic.
You can roam the whole island with a car in a week or less easily.
