Symi owes almost all its beauty to its long naval history. You will have the opportunity to admire outstanding two or three Storey houses with symmetrical doors or windows. These massive colorful mansions used to belong to wealthy merchants and captains, who brought the artistic styles of the west because of their professional activities.

Panormitis Village Simi: The village of Panormitis is located 12 km south of Simi Town and apart from being quite picturesque, its single and unique characteristic makes it one of the most significant areas in Simi. This is the Monastery of Archangel Micheal Panormitis.
