Thassos
Remote
from the organised
mass tourism of Athens and the more famous Greek islands, the Macedonian
island of Thassos remains relatively unknown, although it is easily accessible
from the mainland. With thousands of years of Greek history on its shoulders
and its unique natural landscape, Thassos is still known as the "Emerald
of the Aegean" despite the forest fires which have devastated some of its
woodland in recent years. There are traditional mountain villages and sparkling
beaches,
the remains of prehistoric settlements, relicts of the ancient and classical
eras, early Christian basilicas built on the ruins of ancient temples, old
churches and dozens of tiny sanctuaries dotted about the landscape, making
Thassos one of the most important travel destinations in the Greek part
of Macedonia.
