RACHONI
Another village full of greenery, with all the characteristics of the other villages on Thassos. There are two settlements, Rachoni and Ayios Georgios. The latter was built on the mountain peak and was subsequently abandoned, to be rebuilt lower down. Between the two settlements stands the little church of the Assumption, sheltered by huge plane trees and with a freshwater spring under the altar. This is the village where Mehemet Ali, the founder of the modern Egyptian state, grew up.
