About Kos, Aegean Islands
The island's capital, which is also called Kos , boasts an impressive blend of ancient and medieval heritage. The Asklepion, an ancient healing center dedicated to Asklepios, stands as a testament to the island's historical significance. The Neratzia Castle, a medieval fortress, and the Hippocrates Tree, believed to be where the ancient philosopher taught his disciples, add layers to Kos' cultural tapestry.
Kos unfolds its coastal charm along its beaches, each offering a unique atmosphere. Tigaki and Paradise Beach entice with their golden sands and clear waters, while Kardamena provides a lively seaside ambiance. Exploring the inland villages, like Zia with its panoramic views, reveals a more authentic side of Kos, where traditional architecture and warm hospitality prevail.
