because of it's archaeological interest. Pyrgi means "tower"
in Greek, and at the end of the 19th century there were 160
"pyrgi" in this area. Here you can still see a few

Mytilini town.

resort. The goddess Artemis, protector of thermal springs,
was worshiped here. Excavations in search of her temple

shops.

inscriptions, Ionian and Corinthian columns appear in the
stone walls of all traditional buildings in Pyrgi Thermi.
