Whilst my site concentrates on Mastihari, there are times when I find it difficult not to include something about other parts of the island which are so beautiful, and not only the island of Kos as you can see below.

Instead of writing about them I have decided to do some galleries of photographs which gives you a taste of what treasures you can find here if you have the mind to get out and about.

The island of Giali as seen from the boat on the way to Nissyros. The island is made of pumice stone and is constantly being quarried. It is one of the main employment providers for Nissyros.

Scenes from round and about the church dedicated to the Virgin Mary in Mandraki, Nissyros. The church itself is built inside a cave at the top of the steps.Wonderful place to visit.

Heading back down the island to Palio Pyli and the road from Zia to the Asklepion. It is worth hiring a car to go and see these places.
