Ypsilou monestary is on a mountain top on the road to Sigri. The lush courtyard with flowers, herbs and peach trees is in stark contrast to the barren mountains outside the fortified walls.
The church is open for visitors as well as the museum with relics, old books and icons.

Natural History Museum of the Lesvos Petrified Forest

2020-07-01T14:14:17+00:00

 

Sigri is on the west coast of Lesbos. It’s a little more than 2 hour drive through the different landscapes of the island, the olive trees, the salt pans at Kalloni and the barren mountains of the west. You should visit the Petrified Forrest Museum in Sigri, a very impressive modern museum. Try the earthquake simulator, made as a classroom !
We stay over night in Sigri to avoid a long day in the car.
