Stop At: Symi Town Hall, 1 Mavrovouni Sými, Simi 856 00, Greece
Homer first mentions the name Symi and the mythical king Nereus in his Iliad, in the list that includes those who participated in the Trojan War.The beautiful island of Symi, also the mythological birthplace of the Three Graces, is a small island in the Dodecanese that maintains its authentic traditional character almost intact. Symi retained the neoclassical style of its architecture, as it was relatively early proclaimed – in 1971 – as a historic settlement listed as a National Monument. That makes the island, unique in the Aegean. The charming Gialos is full of colourful mansions built almost on top of the other, with endless steps, hidden corners and incredible views that will enchant you. Its neoclassical style beauty makes Symi postcard-perfect and strolling down its promenade is a pure delight.
