Chios (/ˈkaɪ.ɒs/; Greek: Χίος, translit. Híos; Ancient Greek: Χίος, translit. Khíos) is the fifth largest of the Greek islands, situated in the Aegean Sea, 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) off the Anatolian coast. 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. Tourist attractions include its medieval villages and the 11th-century monastery of Nea Moni, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Chios Mastic Museum

Reviewed By 526max - Stockholm, Sweden

This is probably the best and most informative museum I have ever been to in Greece. An absolute recommendation is to pay a visit to this museum as soon as you arrive to Chios. You will get an excellent knowledge of the historic background of the island, the Masticha tradition and will then get more value out of your visit to the different places in the ”Mastochorio” region of the island.

Chios Beer Microbrewery

***we have moved to a new place please check google map for the new place *** A true microbrewery (maybe the smallest in Greece) with the know-how to make some really good beers. Our door is always open to visitors who'd like a small tour around the machinery, or to try some fresh beer directly from the tank, or get their hands on bottles, glasses, coasters and T-shirts.

A libary, literally a museum devoted to one of the most famous modern philoshophers of Greece. Lived in France, soaked by the ideas of Jean-Jacques Rousseau and the scripts of Rigas Feraios left en enormous sum of books. Furthermore you can learn the history and ethics of Chios through the occupation of Genoa. There is a room with computers which is mainly a librarian study room.
