VOULGARO (Village) MYTHIMNA
In Voulgaro there is a sign southwest to Mouri. After 1,700 metres
there is a right turn to Latsiana. Latsiana is a secluded place on the west side
of a hill and has a spectacular view of the valley. It has high trees, vegetation
and fresh water springs. In Latsiana there are the remains of the Byzantine church
of Agia Varvara dating from the fifteenth century. The church was a three-aisled
basilica with a large dome. The church has been built using materials from an
ancient temple that was on this site. The location of the church is superb, with
a small but beautiful place to sit under the trees nearby and a commanding view
of the valley below.
