Molyvos is often considered one of the most beautiful villages in all of Greece. When we moored our boat in the harbor, we immediately understood why. Here, it feels as if time has stood still. The medieval castle on top of the hill dominates the view and has witnessed both the Byzantine and the Ottoman eras. We sent our drone up to capture the beautiful village of Molyvos from a bird’s-eye view.
