Vyzitsa
Βυζίτσα
One of the best-preserved traditional villages in Pelion, with stone-roofed mansions and a quiet, old-world plane-tree square.
Vyzitsa lies about 2 km west of Milies and is listed as a protected traditional settlement. Almost all of its houses are stone mansions from the 18th and 19th centuries, with slate roofs, painted wooden shutters and small courtyards, many still intact. Some have been converted into traditional guesthouses. The central square under the plane trees has cafés and small tavernas, and it is quieter than the busier Makrinitsa. You can walk to Vyzitsa from Milies along the old stone paths, or combine it with a visit to Pinakates.
