Chorio in Greek means village. The village begins as Yialos ends and continues the structural climb up the mountain into the quieter climbs of the island.

A maze of little streets; it’s a a labyrinth of charming traditional houses, often with spectacular views of the harbour and / or the mountains of Turkey in the distance. This area is more for those who might not mind climbing up a few steps to get to their house and prefer the quieter life style offered here. There is a village square and a fair amount of cafes and restaurants dotted around but altogether the tempo is slower up here than in the harbour.
