Kos Town Founded in 366 BC and climaxed during the Roman and Hellenistic periods, Kos Town is a bridge between civilisations, between east and west and a melting pot of culture, art and trade history. Its impressive harbour, its medieval castle spectacularly connected to the mainland by a bridge, or the large plane tree which Hippocrates used to teach, still remain its long and rich history. On its surrounds is also easy to find vestiges of the civilisations that passes through its harbour. The Archaeological Museum is a more than suitable departure point for those looking for a cultural trip. Like in the whole country the sandy beaches and warm waters will please tourist from all ages and preferences. |

Kos Town, Kos, Greece Holiday Review - Gotta love Kos Town

This place was perfect for my crazy family. Eating is always a problem for us but Kos Town solved that for us. Not only did it offer traditional Greek food but also had McDonalds, Chinese, Indian and Italian food. There were lots of places to sit down with your people, drink and talk about life. The roads were a challenge to get through but always a laugh and adventure. If a moped is not on your tail a car or bicycle is. Nice and small, personal and entertaining. The atmosphere was a treat and the people are delight. We took a boat across to Turkey because they go out on a daily basis but were happy to comeback for more Kos Town fun. The area in old town was the most stunning. The harbour looked mystical in the moonlight and we ate meals on small boats. We did not spend too much time on the beaches even though they were splendid. We had too much other things to try and fit in.
