Η περιοχή βρίσκεται στο ανατολικό μέρος του νησιού, απέναντι από τα μικρασιατικά παράλια. Το πιο σημαντικό, όμως είναι ότι η περιοχή βρίσκεται πολύ κοντά, μόλις 10 λεπτά της ώρας από την Μυτιλήνη την πρωτεύουσα της Λέσβου. Δηλαδή έχεις τη δυνατότητα άμεσης πρόσβασης σε όλα τα αξιοθέατα της πόλης και τις υπηρεσίες, ( κάστρο, μουσεία, εκκλησίες, παλιά αρχοντικά, υπηρεσίες υγείας, τράπεζες κ.λπ.. ), αλλά και στα καταστήματα για ψώνια και διασκέδαση. Καθώς και στο κεντρικό λιμάνι του νησιού για άμεση και εύκολη προσέλευση ή αποχώρηση από αυτό. Τέλος, το γεωγραφικό πλεονέκτημα της περιοχής και το οδικό δίκτυο επιτρέπει στον επισκέπτη να πραγματοποιεί άνετα καθημερινές εξορμήσεις στο εσωτερικό του νησιού. Συνεπώς, συμφέρει τον επισκέπτη να επιλέξει για διαμονή την υπέροχη περιοχή της Θερμής. Έξω από την κίda yer almaktadır. Ancak önemli olan, bölgenin Lesvos’un başkenti Midilli’ye çok yakın mesafede, sadece 10 dakika uzaklıkta olmasıdır.

της πόλης. Σε απόσταση 10 χιλιομέτρων βόρεια της Μυτιλήνης, στην ανατολική πλευρά του νησιού, «καρσί» στα μικρασιατικά παράλια, απλώνεται ο κατάφυτος από ελαιώνες και εσπεριδοειδή κάμπος της Θερμής. Ένας τόπος με αναλλοίωτη τη φυσική του ομορφιά, με πλούσια παράδοση και μαγευτικές παραλίες. Η περιοχή της Θερμής έχει μια ιστορία που αγγίζει τα 5.500 χρόνια. Είναι από τις ελάχιστες της Λέσβου, αλλά και ολοκλήρου του Ανατολικού Αιγαίου, που από την προϊστορική ήδη εποχή, κατοικήθηκε και ανέπτυξε κοινωνικοπολιτική οργάνωση. Η προϊστορική Θερμή ανέπτυξε επαφές με την πόλη της Τροίας και τη στήριξε στον πόλεμο κατά των Αχαιών. Κατά τη Ρωμαϊκή περίοδο, η περιοχή γνώρισε οικονομική άνθιση. Τα λουτρά της Θερμής που φιλοξένησαν στην αρzengin geleneği ve büyüleyici sahilleri olan bir memlekettir.

Thermi bölgesinin tarihi 5.500 yıl öncesine dayanmaktadır.

Lesvos’un ve bütün Doğu Ege’nin, prehistorik çağlardan itibaren yerleşimi olan ve sosyopolitik organizasyon geliştiren çok az bölgesinden biridir.

Prehistorik Thermi, Truva kentiyle iletişim kurmuştur ve Akalara karşı savaşta onu desteklemiştir.

Roma döneminde bölge ekonomik kalkınma yaşamıştır.

Antik çağlarda Artemis tanrıçasına yapılan ibadetlere ev sahipliği yapan Thermi hamamları, Lesvos adası Romalıların eline geçtiğinde, zenginleşmiştir. Hellenistik mermerler, Romalı mezar taşları, Osmanlı kemerleri bir arada bulunmaktadır ve insanların şifalı sularla olan ebedi ilişkisini göstermektedir.

Bölgenin “THERMİ” (Sıcak) olarak adlandırılması da bu şifalı sulardan kaynaklanmaktadır. of untouched natural beauty, a rich tradition and wonderful beaches.

The history of the area of Thermi goes back 5500 years.

It is one of the few areas of Lesbos and the eastern Aegean that has been inhabited since the prehistoric period and developed a sociopolitical structure.

Prehistoric Thermi had developed contacts with the city of Troy and supported it during the Trojan War. Thermi flourished during the Roman period. The baths of Thermi, where people came to pray to the goddess Artemis in the Antiquity, prospered when Lesbos came under the rule of the Romans. Hellenistic marbles, Roman tombstones and Ottoman arches coexist and attest to the endless relationship of humans to the hot springs.

Besides, the area of Thermi (which means “warm” in Greek) 8

χαιότητα τις ικεσίες προς τη θεά Άρτεμη ήκμασαν την εποχή που η Λέσβος πέρασε στην κατοχή των Ρωμαίων. Ελληνιστικά μάρμαρα, ρωμαϊκές επιτύμβιες στήλες, οθωμανικές καμάρες συνυπάρχουν και δηλώνουν την διαχρονική σχέση των ανθρώπων με τις ιαματικές πηγές. Από αυτές προέρχεται και η ονομασία της περιοχής «ΘΕΡΜΗ». Η περιοχή της Θερμής προσφέρεται για ήρεμες και ειδυλλιακές διακοπές. Πανέμορφες οργανωμένες παραλίες και γραφικά χωριά υποδέχονται τον επισκέπτη που αναζητά αποδράσεις μακριά από την πόλη και τα πολύβουα τουριστικά θέρετρα. Ο ήλιος καθρεφτίζεται στα νερά του Αιγαίου και απλώνει μια πανδαισία χρωμάτων στο απέραντο γαλάζιο. Η αύρα της θάλασσας, η μυρωδιά του ούζου και του πεύκου οδηγεί σε ταξίδια που η γαλήνη του τοπίου υπόσχεται.

Thermi bölgesi sakin ve doğa ile iç içe tatil için idealdir.

Birbirinden güzel plajlar ve pitoresk köyler, şehirden ve gürültülü tatil köylerinden uzakta kaçamaklar arayan turistleri beklemektedir.

Güneş, Ege denizinin sularına yansır ve sonsuz mavinin üzerine bir renk yelpazesi olarak yayılır. Denizin avrası, uzonun ve çam ağacının kokusu, manzaradaki sükunetin vaad ettiği yolculuklara götürür.

Bakımlı evlerin ve eski konakların arasındaki taş döşemeli sokaklar ziyaretçinin yolunu gözler. Geleneksel lezzetleriyle otantik lokantalar onu dinlendirir.

Eşsiz patikalar gezgini, enfes tarihi ve doğa anıtlarında gezdirir ve doğa ile temasın sunduğu mutlak özgürlük duygusu verir.

Ayrıca bölge, en popüler dini turizm destinasyonlarından owes its name to these springs.

• Προϊστορικός οικισμός Θερμής Στη θέση «Πετραλώνια» δίπλα στην παραλία κανόνι, έχει εντοπισθεί η προϊστορική Θερμή, όπου ήκμασε ένας πολιτισμός ισόχρονος του Τρωικού, του Μινωικού και του Μυκηναϊκού. Εκεί βρέθηκαν ερείπια πέντε πόλεων, κάθε μια από τις οποίες ήταν σύγχρονη της ομηρικής Τροίας. Η θερμή εμφανίζεται ως ένα παράλιο αστικό κέντρο με οικοδομικά τετράγωνα, λιθόστρωτους δρόμους και οχύρωση. Κατά τους προϊστορικούς χρόνους στην περιοχή της Θερμής είχαν κτιστεί διαδοχικά πέντε πόλεις, η μια πάνω στα ερείπια της άλλης. Είναι αξιοσημείωτο ότι το 3.000 π.Χ. είχε κατοικηθεί από λαό ο οποίος είχε ξεπεράσει το στάδιο της κατεργασίας και χρήσης της πέτρας και είχε προχωρήσει στην κατεργασία των μετάλλων.

• Thermi prehistorik beldesi “Kanoni” plajının yanında, “Petralonia” mevkiinde, Truva, Minoan ve Miken medeniyetleriyle aynı yaşta olan bir medeniyetin gelişmiş olduğu prehistorik Thermi tespit edilmiştir. Burada, her biri Homer’in Truvası çağından olan beş kentin harabeleri bulunmuştur. Thermi inşaat blokları, taş döşemeli evleri ve surlarıyla, bir sahil kent merkezi olarak görülmektedir.

Thermi bölgesinde prehistorik yıllarda ardışık olarak, birbirinin kalıntıları üstüne beş kent inşa edilmişti. M.ö. 3000 yılında, taş işleme ve kullanma aşamasını geçip, metal işlemeye başlayan bir halkın burada yaşamış olması ilgi çekicidir.

• Prehistoric settlement of Thermi The prehistoric settlement of Thermi has been located in the area of “Petralonia”, next to the beach of “Kanoni”. The civilization that flourished in that area was contemporary to the Trojan, Minoan and Mycenaean ones. The ruins of five cities that were contemporary to Troy were discovered in the area. Thermi seems to have been a fortified coastal city with city blocks and cobblestone streets.

During the prehistoric period, five cities had been successively built in the area of Thermi. Each one of them was built over the ruins of the previous one. It should be noted that the people living there in the 3000BC were not only able to process and use stones but they had also moved on to metalworking. The discovery of workshops 22

Στη μέση χαλκοκρατία η Θερμή δεν κατοικείται. Στην ύστερη χαλκοκρατία (2.000 – 1.200 π.Χ.) έχουμε δύο οικισμούς. Η έκτη Θερμή καταστράφηκε από πυρκαγιά περίπου στα 1.200 π.Χ.

Artifacts and tools made of silver, copper, gold and lead show the magnitude of the civilization of Thermi. The last of the five cities was abandoned around 2400BC. Thermi was uninhabited during the Middle Bronze Age. During the Late Bronze Age (2000 – 1200BC) there used to be two settlements in the area. The sixth Thermi was destroyed by a fire around 1200BC. The destruction of the city is connected to the Trojan War and the attacks of the Achaeans on the island. According to Homer, Lesbos had sided with the Trojans against the Achaeans.

Στον ίδιο χώρο, το 1962, η αρχαιολογική σκαπάνη έφερε στο φως χιλιάδες τεμάχια ειδωλίων των ελληνιστικών και πρώιμων ρωμαϊκών χρόνων.

• Archaeological site of “Horafas” Excavations were carried out in 1936 bringing to light the foundations of a monumental octagon building that housed the luxurious baths of the sacred compound of the goddess Artemis. Many figurine parts of the Hellenistic and the early Roman period were discovered in the same area during a new series of excavations in 1962. These findings were votive offerings to the goddess Artemis “Thermia”.

Further excavations attested to the magnitude of the ancient baths and the mud bath compound. This glorious building that was the gem of the area was a famous resort and an important religious center. The “Thermian Celebration”, which probably attracted people from all over the island, took place here. The worship of Artemis is 24

• Byzantine church of Panagia Trouloti The church is located in the area of Pyrgoi Thermis. It is a cross-in-square church that is considered to have been built in the 14th century. According to another theory, it was built in 804, when the empress Irene of Athens was exiled to Lesbos. According to tradition, she went begging in order to collect the money needed to build the church and go through with the penance that her confessor had asked of her when she told him that she blinded her son, Constantine VI, and usurped the Byzantine throne. It is 25

Ο ναός είναι αφιερωμένος στην Κοίμηση της Θεοτόκου, ονομάστηκε όμως Παναγία Τρουλωτή γιατί κατά μοναδική ίσως, περίπτωση, το θόλο του ναού κοσμεί η εικόνα της Θεοτόκου αντί του Παντοκράτορα.

Kilise Meryem Ana’nın uyumasına adanmıştır, ancak Panagia Trouloti (Kubbeli Meryem Ana) adını almıştır çünkü – belki de tek örnek olarak – kubbesini Yüce Yaratanın yerine, Meryem Ana’nın ikonası süslemektedir. İkonaların bulunduğu alan ceviz ağacından yapılmıştır, ahşap oymalıdır ve yaklaşık 18inci yüzyılın ortalarına dayandırılmaktadır. Lesvos’taki en iyi ahşap oymacılık eserlerinden biridir.

one of the few Byzantine churches of that period that still exist on Lesbos today. There are architectural parts of previous buildings in its masonry. The church is dedicated to the Assumption of Mary, but it was named Panagia Trouloti (Mary of the Dome) because the Virgin Mary is depicted on the inside wall of its dome, instead of Christ Pantocrator, as it is usually the case. Hence, this might be a unique phenomenon. The iconostasis of the church is made of walnut wood. It is wood-carved and it probably dates back to the mid 18th century. It is considered one of the best works of woodcarving on Lesbos. The icon of the Assumption of Mary that was created in the early 18th century is the oldest and most notable icon of the church.

• Towers and tower houses in Thermi There used to be 160 towers on the island at the end of the 19th century. Some of them still exist today standing tall among the olive groves. They were fortified multistorey country residences with an almost square floor plan.

They stood out among the orchards and their last floor usually projected from one or more sides. They were the vacation houses of wealthy locals, as well as other Greeks and Turks, but they were also used during the olive harvest period in the winter. The tower houses protected their residents from enemy attacks, as well. They were tall but narrow buildings and their best rooms were located on the last floor that was usually made of wood.

“sahnisinia” (balconies) of that floor made the house sunny and well-ventilated. They also made it easier for the tower owner to monitor the area. The rest of the floors, namely the ground floor and one or two more floors above it, were made of stone. However, this is not always the case, as there are some towers that are completely made of stone.

The “tower of Nianias”, which is the oldest one that still stands on the island today, is unique. It is located in the area of Pyrgoi Thermis. This tower dates back to 1647 and it has a cruciform floor plan.

Κτίστηκε το 1909 σε σχέδια Γάλλων αρχιτεκτόνων από τον τούρκο κάτοικο της Θερμής Χασάν εφέντη και ήταν από τα μεγαλοπρεπέστατα ξενοδοχεία της Λέσβου στην εποχή του. Κεραμοσκεπές, με κολόνες στην είσοδό του και αραβικού τύπου τόξα στα παράθυρα δένει απόλυτα με το περιβάλλον. Το όνομά του είναι τουρκικό και σημαίνει κίτρινη λάσπη (τουρκικά Σαρί Λίτζα) ονομασία που με τη σειρά της προέρχεται από το κίτρινο κατάλοιπο που αφήνει η ροή των θερμών υδάτων της περιοχής.

• “Sarlitza Palace” An impressive building that was erected in 1909 by a Turkish resident of Thermi called Hasan effendi. The construction of the building was based on French architects’ plans. It used to be one of the most magnificent hotels of Lesbos.

Its tile roofs, which are supported by columns at its entrance, and its windows that have Arabic style arches completely integrate this building to its surroundings. Its name is of Turkish origin and it means yellow mud (“sari litza” in Turkish). This name actually derived from the yellow residue that the flow of the warm waters of the area leaves behind. It has been designated a listed monument, yet it is still “waiting” for the restoration works to begin.

The “Thermian Celebration”, a big celebration during which horse races, as well as music and other contests took place, was also part of the worship of Artemis, which had a sacramental aspect, as well. The advent of Christianity ousted the worship of Artemis. The Christian saints Constantine and Helena took the place of the ancient goddess. Inscribed pedestals, columns, column bases and other parts of the ancient healing centre still exist today. The facilities of the “Sarlitza Palace” Hotel supported the operation of the spas in the 20th century.

Η χλωρίδα της περιοχής αποτελείται κατά το πλείστον από ελιές, δάση και θαμνώδεις εκτάσεις όπου μπορεί να βρει κανείς αυτοφυή αρωματικά φυτά( ρίγανη, φασκόμηλο κ.αλ.). Για τους φυσιολάτρες η περιοχή προσφέρει θαυμάσιες διαδρομές για πεζοπορία και ανάβαση. Τρία σπήλαια περιμένουν τους τολμηρούς για εξερεύνηση. Βρίσκονται στην περιοχή μεταξύ Θερμής και Πηγής και η πρόσβαση σ’ αυτά γίνεται μέσα από ελαιώνες, κουμαριές, φασκομηλιές και ρίγα-

Doğal manzara – Mağaralar - Yürüyüşler Bölgenin doğal manzarasına çok çeşitlilik ve çok türlülük hakimdir. Dağ ve deniz, zeytin alanları ve ormanlar, vadiler ve işlenen ovalar, hayranlık uyandıran bir uyum içinde birbiriyle iç içe girmektedirler.

Το στόμιο του σπηλαίου έχει διάμετρο 2,5 μέτρα και βάθος περίπου 20 μέτρα. Στο βάθος του σπηλαίου βρίσκεται το ξωκλήσι του Αγίου απλό και απέριττο.

• Σπήλαιο Αγίου Ιωάννη του Καταφύγη. Βρίσκεται σε απόσταση 5 χιλ. περίπου από τη Θερμή στη νότια πλευρά του δρόμου Θερμής – Πηγής. Η ανάβαση ξεκινά από τον κεντρικό δρόμο, είναι αρκετά δύσκολη, το τέλος του όμως, θα ανταμείψει τον αναβάτη.

Aziz Yohanna Katafigis ve Aziz Filippos rahiplik yapmışlardır.

• Aziz Filippos Mağarası. Thermi – Pigi yolunun güneyinde bulunmaktadır ve Thermi köyünden yaklaşık 4 km uzaklıktadır. Buraya yolculuk anayoldan başlar.

Shelterer (Agios Ioannis Katafygis) and Saint Philip.

• Cave of Saint Philip It is located south of the road connecting Thermi to Pigi, about 4km away from the village of Thermi. The route leading towards it begins from the main road. The entrance to the cave is 2.5m in diameter and the cave is about 20m deep. The humble chapel of the saint is located deep inside the cave.

• Cave of Saint John the Shelterer (Agios Ioannis Katafygis) It is about 5km away from Thermi, south of the road connecting Thermi to Pigi. The uphill climb towards it begins from the main road and it is quite difficult, but also quite rewarding once you reach the end of the trail.

Diğer yollar, gereksiz sapmalar olmaksızın adanın merkezi ve batı kısmına götürür, ki buralarda kaydadeğer tatil beldeleri vardır (Kalloni, Plomari, Eresos, Sigri).

•C ave of Saint Thymianos It is located in a verdant area north/northeast of the road connecting Thermi to Pigi and it is only 4km away from Thermi.
