But since most of these are known I'll show you a village on the island of Chios which is constructed in such a way, that reminds medieval movie. So meet Mesta.

What makes this village so unique, apart from its natural beauty, is that it feels like walking in a maze!

Thank you @giosou! Have you been there?

Yes . About 8 years ago.

Impressive! Is certainly already very old. In former times much lovelier was built. All stone. How much work has been done there. Everything looks very romantic. In Greece there are also many white houses. I really like them too. Today, a lot of sober and cold, at least by us, built. Angle and secret corners are almost gone

White houses are mostly located in the Aegean islands. Very traditional way for the locals to paint them white

Wow..soooo nice place..and.lovely shot.my dear friend

Thank you. But these are not my shots @moniroy...
