In Kythira, the orchards are still blooming, the courtyards of the houses exude the aromas of colorful pots and if you are lucky, the smell of the wood-fired oven baking rusks in oil will make you discover them.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"pfl wp-block-paragraph\">We begin our tour of the tourist routes, from the southernmost part of the island in the capital <strong>Chora<\/strong> with its narrow picturesque streets, white houses with beautiful enclosed courtyards, century-old mansions, and with the imposing Venetian castle dominating three seas. At the foot of Chora, built in a natural bay that forms an omega, is the picturesque <strong>Kapsali<\/strong> with a magnificent view of the Cretan Sea, the rocky islet of Hytra and cosmopolitan life.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the center west of the island, built between valleys with running water and plane trees, is the village of <strong>Mylopotamos<\/strong>. From the central square of the village, springs gush forth, the waters of which pass through the Myloi area with its traditional watermills. <strong>Kato Chora<\/strong> is a settlement of Mylopotamos, it is a listed building and is considered a model of architectural street planning, it has centuries-old houses and there is the Venetian castle of Kato Chora with its wonderful sunset.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"pfl wp-block-paragraph\">Continuing centrally on the island on the main road there is the village of <strong>Aroniadika<\/strong> with picturesque alleys and interesting architecture that is a mixture of influences from the Peloponnese and the Aegean style.<br\/>Further south we find the village of <strong>Mitata<\/strong> with a panoramic view of lush vegetation, the village organizes a wine festival every summer.<br\/>East of Kythira is built by the sea <strong>Avlemonas<\/strong>, which stands out for the Cycladic architecture of its houses and the small Venetian castle that exists there. Every time we visit the village we see the rapid tourist development, with a multitude of accommodation accommodations ideally acclimatized to the cultural environment of the village.<br\/>\u039d\u03bf\u03c4\u03b9\u03cc\u03c4\u03b5\u03c1\u03b1 \u03c3\u03c5\u03bd\u03b1\u03bd\u03c4\u03ac\u03bc\u03b5 \u03c4\u03bf \u03c7\u03c9\u03c1\u03b9\u03cc <strong>\u039c\u03b7\u03c4\u03ac\u03c4\u03b1<\/strong> \u03bc\u03b5 \u03c0\u03b1\u03bd\u03bf\u03c1\u03b1\u03bc\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae \u03b8\u03ad\u03b1 \u03c3\u03b5 \u03c0\u03bb\u03bf\u03cd\u03c3\u03b9\u03b1 \u03b2\u03bb\u03ac\u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03c3\u03b7, \u03c3\u03c4\u03bf \u03c7\u03c9\u03c1\u03b9\u03cc \u03ba\u03ac\u03b8\u03b5 \u03ba\u03b1\u03bb\u03bf\u03ba\u03b1\u03af\u03c1\u03b9 \u03bf\u03c1\u03b3\u03b1\u03bd\u03ce\u03bd\u03b5\u03c4\u03b1\u03b9 \u03b7 \u03b3\u03b9\u03bf\u03c1\u03c4\u03ae \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5 \u03ba\u03c1\u03b1\u03c3\u03b9\u03bf\u03cd.<br\/>\u0391\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf\u03bb\u03b9\u03ba\u03ac \u03c4\u03c9\u03bd \u039a\u03c5\u03b8\u03ae\u03c1\u03c9\u03bd \u03b5\u03af\u03bd\u03b1\u03b9 \u03c7\u03c4\u03b9\u03c3\u03bc\u03ad\u03bd\u03bf\u03c2 \u03c0\u03b1\u03c1\u03b1\u03b8\u03b1\u03bb\u03ac\u03c3\u03c3\u03b9\u03b1 \u03bf <strong>\u0391\u03b2\u03bb\u03ad\u03bc\u03bf\u03bd\u03b1\u03c2<\/strong> \u03c0\u03bf\u03c5 \u03be\u03b5\u03c7\u03c9\u03c1\u03af\u03b6\u03b5\u03b9 \u03b3\u03b9\u03b1 \u03c4\u03b7\u03bd \u03ba\u03c5\u03ba\u03bb\u03b1\u03b4\u03af\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03b7 \u03b1\u03c1\u03c7\u03b9\u03c4\u03b5\u03ba\u03c4\u03bf\u03bd\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae \u03c4\u03c9\u03bd \u03c3\u03c0\u03b9\u03c4\u03b9\u03ce\u03bd \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5 \u03ba\u03b1\u03b9 \u03c4\u03bf \u03bc\u03b9\u03ba\u03c1\u03cc \u03b5\u03bd\u03b5\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc \u03ba\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u03ad\u03bb\u03bf \u03c0\u03bf\u03c5 \u03c5\u03c0\u03ac\u03c1\u03c7\u03b5\u03b9 \u03b5\u03ba\u03b5\u03af. \u039a\u03ac\u03b8\u03b5 \u03c6\u03bf\u03c1\u03ac \u03c0\u03bf\u03c5 \u03b5\u03c0\u03b9\u03c3\u03ba\u03b5\u03c0\u03c4\u03cc\u03bc\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u03b5 \u03c4\u03bf \u03c7\u03c9\u03c1\u03b9\u03cc \u03b2\u03bb\u03ad\u03c0\u03bf\u03c5\u03bc\u03b5 \u03c4\u03b7\u03bd \u03c1\u03b1\u03b3\u03b4\u03b1\u03af\u03b1 \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5\u03c1\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae \u03b5\u03be\u03ad\u03bb\u03b9\u03be\u03b7, \u03bc\u03b5 \u03c0\u03bb\u03ae\u03b8\u03bf\u03c2 \u03b1\u03c0\u03cc \u03ba\u03b1\u03c4\u03b1\u03bb\u03cd\u03bc\u03b1\u03c4\u03b1 \u03b4\u03b9\u03b1\u03bc\u03bf\u03bd\u03ae\u03c2 \u03b5\u03b3\u03ba\u03bb\u03b9\u03bc\u03b1\u03c4\u03b9\u03c3\u03bc\u03ad\u03bd\u03b1 \u03b9\u03b4\u03b1\u03bd\u03b9\u03ba\u03ac \u03c3\u03c4\u03bf \u03c0\u03bf\u03bb\u03b9\u03c4\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc \u03c0\u03b5\u03c1\u03b9\u03b2\u03ac\u03bb\u03bb\u03bf\u03bd \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5 \u03c7\u03c9\u03c1\u03b9\u03bf\u03cd.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Further north is <strong>Potamos<\/strong>, one of the largest villages in <a href=\"https:\/\/kythirapanorama.gr\/en\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"5639\">Kythira<\/a>, which is also the commercial center of the island.
