Directions

Step back in time as you wander through the enchanting stone-paved labyrinth of Mesta, one of the most well-preserved medieval villages in Chios. Built as a fortress, the houses are constructed side-by-side, creating a protective outer wall that you can still see today. Get lost in the maze of narrow, arched alleyways designed to confuse pirates, and you'll eventually find your way to the lively central square, where you can relax at a traditional taverna. The entire village is a pedestrian-only zone, making it a peaceful escape into history.
