What to expect
Kos
Kos Town is a handsome harbor community, fronted by a superb medieval castle and somehow squeezed amid a mind-blowing array of ancient ruins from the Greek, Roman and Byzantine eras.
Eleftherias Square, the main social gathering place of Kos and a good spot to start your tour of the town.
Asklepion is probably the major attraction of Kos Island. According to ancient Greek mythology, Asclepius was the god of medicine and healing.
The ancient Agora of Kos, one of the largest of its kind excavated in Greece, is among the most important sights on the island.
Antimachia Castle
The Castle of Antimachia in Kos, on a small hill above Antimachia village, to the south of Kos Town lies the Venetian Castle, known as the Castle of Antimachia.
Paleo Pili
The ruins of the Paleo Pyli fortress ( Old Pyli fortress ) sit west of the Mount Dikeos range, standing proudly throughout the ages atop a rocky hill.
