ABOUT THE AREA Kini is a village at an altitude of 200m, with characteristic local architecture. It’s part of the famous Mastic villages; a series of fortified villages built in the 14th century. Some are very impressive with their intricately painted houses. This so-called ‘Mastichochoria’ is an area well known for the production of mastic. This is the hardened resin of the mastic tree which is only harvested on Chios. It is a major part of the local economy and to protect this throughout history, the villages were built out of sight from the sea and surrounded by high walls. The central tower had no door at street level but was entered by ladders which were used as bridges from the rooftops and then pulled up. It’s an impressive sight to see and mastic is a product widely used in cooking, also providing certain health benefits. Also, tasty liqueur and sweets are produced from this resin, also referred to as ‘tears of the gods’. Chios is the fifth largest Greek island, situated in the northern Aegean Sea, and the tenth largest island in the overall Mediterranean Sea. The island is separated from Turkey by the Chios Strait. Chios is notable for its exports of mastic gum and its nickname is 'the Mastic Island' Chios is outstanding. Although the fifth largest island in Greece, it has never overly encouraged tourism and remains blissfully off the regular tourist trail. Those who do come will find an island with a rich history, a strong identity, a varied mountainous landscape and unique charms which inevitably draws people back. On Chios there is always something new to discover. The capital, Chios Town, halfway down the east coast, faces Turkey just a few miles across the narrow straight. The location of this large, bustling modern island capital makes it the best place to stay if you want to explore the whole island. The expansive harbour has the perennial plethora of restaurants, cafes and bars around its length and is always lively. Little of the town survived the earthquake of 1881 but the old quarter within the fortified Kastro is worth a wander and home to several Ottoman monuments. Off the large main square there is a bustling market cum bazaar, there are various museums – the island has a long and often bloody history – and the town boasts some excellent tavernas. Although there is a small shingle town beach a short walk from our hotel, for more than a quick dip most people hop onto one of the frequent buses that run south to sandy Karfas (see below) in just 15 minutes or north to the pebble coves of Vrontados. A daily boat takes 45 minutes to reach Cesme in Turkey, making a day trip to Asia Minor easy (a side trip to Izmir can be made from Cesme).
