Pythagorio is a resort town about 1 km from the airport (the beach is on the flight path). During the tourist season, it is a bussing port, shipping tourists in and out and the main income is tourism. This drops off during the off-season. However, as a resort it is quite pleasant since it is not as built up as resorts on most other islands. The town is relatively small with tight streets so the tourist shops are forced onto the main, one-way street. The hotels are all small, more like pensions that are no more than three floors high.
The town, named after the mathematician Pythagoras; A famous greek mathematician who found a way to calculate the
hypotenuse of a triangle. Modern Pythagorio is built close a set of Archaic ruins
and the Eupalino Aqueduct. I hope you enjoy the photos. Any comments, please E-mail me, | Click on the title or thumbnail to view the larger picture.
