As we leave Megas
Limnionas, the road takes us to Thymiana. Before we enter the town, a road
to the left leads to the old area of Keramio. Here we see the chapel of Agios
Yiannis Stenakouson (St. John). And beside it is the Pirghos (Tower), which is
of architectural interest; it is 200 years old.
Descending the same road, in less than two minutes, we see the Keramio
or tile factory, which was once a thriving industry. Unfortunately, this large
plant has been closed for many years. South of the factory is the beach of Mavri
with its pebbles that resemble lighted coals from afar. This beach is preferred
by those who seek solitude, away from crowds.
