These scattered islands, lying between Leros, Patmos, Samos and the coast of Asia Minor, form a seascape of ever-changing beauty. Although they once guarded the important sea-lanes out of Miletus, modern borders have separated them from the mainland, making them remote backwaters, whose principal appeal today is that very fact. This is a chapter from Blue Guide Greece the Aegean Islands: what to see, where to stay and eat, history, archaeology, art, culture, leisure. With superb, award-winning maps. Written and edited by a team of three experts: historian, art historian and archaeologist, two of whom lead cultural tours in Greece. "Blue Guides still hold the cultural high ground" Sunday Times. |
