Kampos

Just 6 km from the town of Chios is the traditional settlement of Kampos, founded by the Genoese invaders in the 14th century and currently under the protection of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism. Genoa and Chios meet stylishly in the earth-coloured mansions of the local aristocrats of the past.

Don’t let the high walls stop you exploring vast orange orchards, tree-roofed alleys and scented gardens. Devastated by the massacre in 1822 and the earthquake in 1881, the old mansions with their enormous gates, coats of arms, and arched windows have been revamped and turned into guest houses, awakening memories of their glory days of the 17th and 18th centuries.

Experience the atmosphere of a bygone age as you stroll or cycle around the settlement’s mansions and forty churches.
