TITHOREA (Municipality) FTHIOTIDA
In the area there is a railway station which is considered to be a
junction for the region. The train is the basic means of transport and linking
with Athens (lasts 1 hour
and 30 minutes). It also gives the opportunity to get to the
skiing center of Parnassos very quickly.
Each visitor of Tithorea comes in touch with considerable natural
scenes (for example forests, Kahala canyon) and gets impressed by the unique dignity
and magnificence of Parnassos.
He has also the opportunity to see some historical monuments such
as the ancient wall with the castle, the traditional watermill, the cave of Odysseus
Androutsos, country churches with Byzantine wall painting, archeological findings
of roman spa at Modi
etc.
Finally the mountaineering paths of Parnassos which end at Tithorea,
offer some physical exercise to those who are willing to walk through them. It
is a way to escape a little from the life in cities.
Visitors can be served at hotels, tourist accommodation and traditional
taverns.
Some religious festivals take place in our Municipality with traditional
bands at the name day of Agia Marina 17/7, Agia Paraskevi 27/7, Sotiros Metamorfosis
6/8, Theotokos Kimisis 15/8. There are also carnival festivals and cultural displays
run by the Women Club. Something special for this region is the Easter grilling
of the lamb in different neighborhoods with 15-20 lambs in each hole.
