Chios Island Greece

Chios Island is the fifth-largest of the Greek islands, located in the Aegean Sea about 7 kilometers (4.3 miles) off the Anatolian coast. It is separated from Turkey by the Çeşme Strait. Chios is famous for its production and export of mastic gum and is often called “The Mastic Island.” Visitors are drawn to its well-preserved medieval villages and the 11th-century Nea Moni Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Administratively, Chios Island forms a separate municipality within the Chios regional unit, part of the North Aegean region of Greece. The island’s main town and municipal seat is Chios Town. Locals often refer to Chios Town as “Chora” ("Χώρα"), a Greek word that literally means “land” or “country,” but is commonly used for the main town or capital of a Greek island.
