Molyvos
Molyvos is the tourist capital of Lesvos but don't let that scare you away. It is Greek Island tourism at its best with all of the good qualities and few of the bad and attracts visitors who are sensitive to culture and tradition but are still there to have a good time.
Shopping
There are a number of interesting stores in Molyvos. The small shop called Glaros, next to the Seahorse cafe has some unique gifts by local artists and is owned by a German woman named Bergit who is married to Vangelis. On the opposite side of the Seahorse are two very interesting shops.The Aigaio is owned by Costas and Ute Zissiadis and has perhaps the most interesting collection of local, Greek and Turkish art that you will find anywhere and can experienced as a gallery rather than just a gift shop. Right across the street te same can be said for the shop called O Diaskosmos, owned by A Dasiras and contains not only his paintings but art from several of the other local artists.
Currency
The Euro (EUR), the currency of the European Union, is the official currency of Greece.
