Kos Town

by steventilly - last update: Feb 19, 2006

One Of My Favourite Places

Kos Town Centre
I loved Kos. From the moment we arrived we knew that it felt special and the following week proved that feeling to be 100% correct. There were many things to like about the place - the picturesque and bustling harbour, the magnifcent castle, the extensive (and free) archialogical sites, the lovely old-town and the wonderful nightlife.
The beaches were decent too if you went looking for them, and there's a great range of places to eat - Kos has been my favourite Greek island so far for eating. There's also good opportunities for cycling along the coast in both directions from Kos town, one (towards Psaladi) on a purpose made cycle track and the other (towards Tingak) on a little used back-road. It all added up to a truly wonderful week away.

 What a pretty and interesting place. Am going for a day trip from Bodrum, looks like I will have plenty to keep me busy for the day. Lovely photos.

 The upper floors are still used by the Turkish community for prayers. My friend rents the shop on the other side which sells mainly handbags.
