The loving village of Agapi on Tinos

Of all the beautiful villages on Tinos, it is this little gem that is blessed with the most beautiful name, because Agapi means Love in Greek. Imagine to live in a village called Love! Would not that be something. The person that once named the village must have loved his home village.

The village of Agapi on the island of Tinos is one of the finest villages in the Cyclades.

Agapi is known for its many pigeon houses.

Agapi means love in Greek and on Tinos there is a village with the same name.

And it is not difficult to understand why Agapi has such a beautiful name. Firstly, the village is set extremely beautiful in a magnificent valley with lush trees and lovely dovecotes. Secondly, the village is amazingly charming, admittedly quite shabby, but it's the inside that counts, isn't that so.

The village's main alley is covered with arches from beginning to end, it's like walking indoors. From the arched alley it is possible to walk further up into the village via old shabby steps. There is also a taverna! Do not miss this sweet little village located at the end of the road. If you drive to the beach in Kolymbithra, you can make a detour to Agapi.
