Vamos

The municipality of Vamos, the capital town of which bears the same name, consists of the former districts of Gavalohori, Plaka, Kokkino Chorio, Kaina, Kefala, Xerosternio, Selia, Kalamitsi Alexandrou. It is a semi-mountainous area with interesting natural surroundings, dominated by local woody  or bushy flora and architectural heritage. Small villages, most of which are old, are spread throughout the area, which is characterized by a lack of water and limited agricultural productivity. While this lack of resources resulted in a severe reduction of the population it did not have any effect on the architectural character or the natural surroundings of the region until recently. This is the main reason why a lot of foreigners buy old houses or land and settle here. The biggest part of the steep, rocky coastline has preserved its natural wild beauty.
