Mytilene
Λέσβος, Λήμνος · Greece
A port town on the southeast coast of Lesbos with a walkable centre dense with cafés, restaurants, and historic churches, Mytilene has served as the island's capital since antiquity — founded in the 11th century BC — and today also heads the North Aegean Region. The waterfront is central to daily life, mountains rise nearby, and the University of the Aegean gives the town an active, year-round character.
