Visit Samos Επισκεφθείτε τα νησιά μας, Σάμος - Ικαρία - Φούρνοι! - Visit our islands, Samos, Ikaria and Fournoi!

Samos, Ikaria, Fournoi: three islands lying very close together. The starting points for a voyage in time and space, a journey through legend and history, through the wonders of nature and marvels of human achievement. From ancient times to the present day these islands have been designated as sites of outstanding natural beauty, extolled by poets and travelers through the centuries. The words of

the great teachers, the sages and poets of Ionia are carried as if on a breeze through the ruins of ancient temples, the tumbledown city walls, the deserted ancient agora. They billow the sails of the pirate ships, spread the wings of Icarus and alight on the beaches, villages and towns of the islands, reminding us that beauty lies in the heart of landscape, in nature and sea and also in the experience of the soul, in the majesty of those ideas and visions which unite the fates of gods and men. We invite you to join us on our journey, to accompany us on a breathtaking voyage!

Σάμος, Ικαρία, Φούρνοι: τρία νησιά πολύ κοντινά μεταξύ τους, που μπορούν να σε ταξιδέψουν στο χώρο και το χρόνο, στο μύθο και την ιστορία, στα θαύματα της φύσης και των ανθρώπων.

Από την αρχαιότητα μέχρι τις μέρες μας, τα τρία αυτά νησιά, έχουν καταγραφεί ως τόποι μοναδικής φυσικής ομορφιάς και υμνήθηκαν από ποιητές και περιηγητές μέσα στους αιώνες.

Σαν πνοή ανέμου μέσα στο χρόνο ταξιδεύουν τα λόγια των μεγάλων διδασκάλων, των σοφών, των ποιητών της Ιωνίας μέσα στα ερείπια των αρχαίων ναών, στα μισογκρεμισμένα τείχη, στην έρημη αρχαία αγορά. Φουσκώνουν τα πανιά των πειρατών, ανοίγουν τα φτερά του Ίκαρου και φτάνουν στ’ ακρογιάλια, στα χωριά και τις πόλεις των νησιών για να θυμίσουν ότι η ομορφιά είναι τόπος, είναι φύση, είναι θάλασσα, αλλά και βίωμα ψυχής, μεγαλείο ιδεών και ενοράσεων, που δένει τις μοίρες των θεών και των ανθρώπων.

Σας προσκαλούμε να περιπλανηθείτε μαζί μας σε αυτό το υπέροχο ταξίδι.
