The island is widely known as the home of the ancient Greek poet Sappho, from whose association with #homosexuality the word #lesbian derives its modern meaning. In English and most other European languages, including Greek, the term lesbian is commonly used to refer to homosexual women. This use of the term derives from the #poems of Sappho, who was born in Lesbos and who wrote with powerful #emotional content directed toward other women. Due to this association, the town of #Eresos, her birthplace, is visited frequently by #LGBT tourists.
Castles, noble mansions, olive groves and countless beaches, Lesvos - the North Aegean island famous as the home of ouzo and a world-famous petrified forest - is one of the most welcoming holiday spots in Greece.
Situated in the North Aegean, Lesvos was the birthplace of the poets #Sappho and Alcaeus, possesses a rare natural beauty, architectural #marvels, a petrified forest, medieval fortress towns and a Mediterranean #climate. Olive trees carpet much of its landmass, which is indented by two deep, almost closed, fish-filled bays.
Other attractions on Lesvos include #lively #traditional #villages, beaches that stretch for miles, #ouzo distilleries to visit and exquisite #delicacies to accompany your drink. These are just some of the treats awaiting you on fascinating Lesvos
#Molyvos can rival the most beautiful medieval #fortress #towns in Europe, while its only peer in Greece is #Monemvasia, in the #Peloponnese. And like it, its houses grasp onto the sides of a steep rock while turning their gaze to the #Mediterranean. The structure and layout of the town and its 13th-century #Genoese #castle have remained unchanged over the course of centuries. As you stroll up and down its alleyways, note the stone #houses and the Anatolian-style mansions with their brightly coloured doors and windows and enclosed wooden balconies, as well as the elegant Turkish fountains scattered throughout.
The true capital of Lesvos and a #magnet for #visitors in the North #Aegean, Mytilini displays its handsome old buildings along the waterfront with the impressive church of Agios #Therapon as the centrepiece. All of this is crowned by the Franko - #Byzantine castle rising out of pinewood on the hill behind.
Learn about the fascinating #Petrified #Forest
One of the undoubted #highlights of Lesvos and one of the very few places in the world where you can see trees lying where they fell millions of years ago. Take the time to visit the ‘park’, which was declared a Protected #Natural #Monument in 1985, and the adjacent museum, where you’ll learn about the island’s intriguing #geology.
#Relaxing at the thermal springs of Eftalou
Between the brushwood-covered rocks - geological sculptures emerging from the sea - can be found the #thermal #waters of #Eftalou. The water from the spring emerges from underwater springs at a temperature of 43.6-46.5 degrees Celsius and is renowned for its #therapeutic properties.
The monastery of Taxiarchis is located in Madamados. It was built in 1700, and it is dedicated to the saint #patron of Lesvos. The #tradition says that the icon of Taxiarhes in this church was made of clay and the blood of some monks, slaughtered by pirates in the #Medieval times.
#Petra beach Lesvos is large and well-organized, part of a #popular #tourist #resort that lies 57 km north west of #Mytilene, the capital of Lesvos. It offers many facilities like umbrellas, sun beds, showers and changing cabins. Some restaurants and taverns are found in close distance. The impressive #rock in the middle of this village with the church on top is breathtaking!
Skala #Eressou #beach Lesvos: This long and #sandy beach is #gay #friendly. Sun beds and #umbrellas are available on the beach as well as plenty of #accommodation , #cafes, #bars and #taverns. It receives many tourists during the summer season, especially those who stay close to the village.

JUST TI SET THINGS RIGHT......THE ISLAND IS CALLED "LESVOS" AND NOT "LESBOS".......

[@TourismosTravelGuru]

Lesbos or Lesvos (Greek: Λέσβος, romanized: Lésvos [ˈlezvos]) is a Greek island located in the northeastern Aegean Sea. (As copied and pasted from Wikipedia)
