Which of the Beautiful Cities in Samos is the Best?

Beautiful Vathy City is the capital of the beautiful Samos Island and one of its ports. It is one of the beautiful cities in Samos and it has about 2,025 inhabitants.

People also call this largest capital city in the island, which lies in the northeast of the Island of Samos, Samos.

However, the ancient city of Samos is now the City of Pythagorio, built on the place of the ancient city. The City of Vathy is about 9.9 kilometres at the northeast of the second big City of Pythagorio and it takes about 15 minutes drive.

In Ano Vathy at the south of the city are houses with red tiles from the 19th century on the hillside. All kinds of restaurants, cafés and bars are at the harbour side. This is a hot place in the hot season and some tourists may escape it sometimes to calmer places.

There are four palm trees and a statue in the central square of the city, called Plateia Pythagorou. It lies just right near the ferry terminal and reachable by taking the street of Themistokleous Sofouli, beside the waterfront.

The Commercial Bank is at the east of the square of Plateia Pythagorou. The National Bank of Greece is at the south of Plateia Pythagorou, and there are ATMs there. The bus station, KTEL in Ioannou Lekti is few metres from the waterfront.

At a short walking distance after a block lie the municipal gardens. The small beaches are at the north of many hotels near the waterfront at the eastern part of the Bay and at the western part of it. See beautiful beaches in Samos.

The third attraction beside the municipal gardens and the old quarter of the city in Ano Vathy at the south of the beautiful city of Samos is the Archaeological Museum.

It exhibits items from the era of Polycrates, including "kouros", the male statue from the archaic time; brought the museum from Ireon beside other statues, bronze sculptures and pottery.

In the hot seasons, when touristy traffic climaxes, you may find difficulties in getting a room in the beautiful Vathy City.

However, there are beautiful hotels to stay in the City of Vathy such as Aeolis Hotel, Galaxy Hotel, Pythagoras Hotel and Mirini Hotel.

The Ireon is about 7 kilometres southwest of the ancient city and on the Valley of Imbrasos River before it empties its water in the sea. The ruins of Aphrodite are at a place between Lykourgou Logotheti and the parking.

There is an ancient theatre at the northeast of the centre of the city and at the right. After it, you will find the monastery of Moni Panagias Silianis. They call it the Monastery of the Virgin of the Grotto.
