vacation question?

admin on Apr-18-2010

does anyone know anything about Karpathos, Greece. I’m planning to go there in a few weeks
anyone from karpathos?

Hi i am not from Karpathos, but one of my best friends is! From i what i hear from her, is that its a very traditional island which keeps many of its old customs. If you travel to other islands in Greece you will see that Karpathos is more traditional where it has a somewhat different mentality about things. It has a rich history and beautiful villages. The people there also tend to look more Mediterranean as its in the Southeast of Greece. Thats all i know, i am sorry i am not from there but this is what what my friend says. I hope i helped :)

    It’s a very beautiful place which has fortunately remained relatively unspoilt by tourism. Karpathians have preserved many of their traditions and customs to this day.

    Bravo! I want also to visit Karpathos some day. It is a fantastic place, very pure. I only know that they had a very rich "traditional" history (of 17-18th century let’s say) and you can see many beautiful houses there.
