The church in the center of town is quite something! Also an easy place to walk in terms of distance but would be difficult for older people or those who have trouble walking on uneven surfaces. Not too far from Mylitene. Souvenir shops but also the traditional shops where the villagers go for their goods.

A beautiful church with a rich history. The ancient icon of the Virgin and the hand-painted images that cover the walls are remarkable. The location of the church in an authentic and ancient village square take you back in time in a way no other place I have visited can do. Take a moment to have a coffee or cold drink and some traditional sweets at one of the cafes immediately outside of the church court entrance or have a meal at one of the places that surround the agora on the north side of the church

Very beautiful church up several cobblestone streets. If you have trouble walking this trip may not be for you. Very hot/humid during Summer months but a definite see if on the Island of Lesvos. I found the town quite charming and very authentic.

This church is the second church/monastery that you have to visit. It has a miracle ikon of Virgin Mary which is believed that was brought from Jerusalem. That's why it was called Church of Agia Sion. Also the village was called the same and then it turned to Agiasos in years. In short, all the history of the village was arouse from the ikon... Very interesting and is worth to visit....

One more beautiful church with an over-the-top iconostasis and a fancy ceiling. Also some of the worst restrooms ever.
