Mitilini..is big

Yes, it is a not a big city but from what I have visited so far this looks like London. Buses, motorcycles, cars hundreds of tourists, noise..it is crazy but still beautiful. As an ancient city, lying off the east coast, Mytilene was initially confined to a small island just offshore that later was joined to Lesbos, creating a north and south harbor. The early harbors of Mytilene were linked during ancient times by a channel 700 m long and 30 m wide. The Roman writer Longus speaks of white stone bridges linking the two sides. The Greek word εὔριπος eúripos is a commonly-used term when referring to a strait. The strait allowed ancient warships called triremes, with three tiers of rowers or more...long history and always linked to sailors. Very important stop also for all supplies. You can find pretty much everything.Okumaya devam et
