Alyki, Thassos
Aliki is paradise on earth. Whatever i say, you have to go there to see what i'm talking about...



Aliki emerges from the depths of history.
Legend has it that, in ancient times, this peninsula was ruled by Queen Aliki.
Behind the houses lining the coast, we can still see the remains of an ancient settlement, while in the eastern gulf* the Jericho gulf, we find the ancient sanctum with its two buildings, constructed in mid-7th century B.C. A "Kouros" (young man) statue found on this site in 1886 is currently on display at the Museum of Constantinople....
