A building that collapsed in the earthquake 50 years ago

Fiscardo harbor

Colorful houses

The cove on the Island is picturesque no matter where you look

The narrowing place is Assos Village

A large yacht berths at the harbor that we arrived at, transforming it into a fashionable resort that makes us think that this is an 18th century-style building.

Fiscardo, which has only a few places left after the earthquake, can now be seen as a fancy restaurant and souvenir shop.

The harbor is lively even during the off-season, and in the summer all the shops are Greek Overcrowded.

 Take a walk along the back alley with Kotetsu.

 It's a foreign Island with different languages and customs, but why do you feel attached to it?
 I feel like an acquaintance with the smell of the houses and the greetings with the people I meet.

Cats also have their tails raised and rub against each other like their neighbors.

 It feels like I'm back in my hometown.
I hurry to the northernmost port because I can't leave.

There is a big difference between the houses you can see from the observatory and the actual walking in the village.

Dark red bougainvillea flowers add color to the brightly colored houses.

The unique orange roof and small green and blue windows depict Greek paintings.

The production of the jar placed casually at the entrance is good.

 I especially liked the village of ASOS,
which has a population of 100 in winter
and 500 in summer.

There are 65 villages on the Island,
among which the elegant and elegant
walls of the castle ruins watch over the cove.
 I was thrilled to meet the quiet village of Assos.
 

I don't remember the big earthquake that occurred in the Greek region in 1953, but it seems that most of the island collapsed.

 I visited Fiscardo, the northernmost town that is the only one that retains its original shape.

An hour's drive from the center, the taxi will blow you off the road with hairpin curves.

Both the Ionian Sea and the Aegean Sea
will shine even more under the scorching sun.

The color of the sea in August in midsummer symbolizes Greece.
The sea changes into the color of the time with the sunlight.

Kotetsu agrees that the village of Assos,
which I stopped by on the way,
has a strong impression and its beauty is imprinted on my eyes.
Kotetsu says, "We like the village of Assos."
