Vathi Samos
The enchanting capital of Samos, Vathi, is found in the north-eastern part of the island. The settlement is built amphitheatricly in the depth of the gulf from which - as the history delivers - it took its name.
Vathi in the beginning of the passed century was a small settlement near to the harbour of the island which was funded by the traders, who started to build in the region their offices as well as their warehouses. Therefore a new modern city began to be developed around the harbour. In 1832 Vathi became the capital of the island. Today, it shows a significant tourism growth and constitutes one of the most popular holiday destinations in the Aegean Sea.
In the city the visitor meets old and new buildings which compose a harmonious architectural total that determines the identity of the region. Imposingly neoclassic buildings that accommodate public and private services, graphic neighborhoods with old paved alleys which bring the islander seal.
In Vathi is found also the harbour of island in which anchor the commercial boats and the private yachts of the visitors of Samos. |
