 | | Kalloni and its seven settlements is located at the center of Lesvos. |
 | | The archaeological findings and the dispersed remainings of walls, capitals, whorls, vessels, the ruins of temples, the bonfires, the objects, the coins spread over an area of 2.500 square meters are marks of the historical past and the important civilization of those two great cities that vanished during a big earthquake in 231 BC. |
 | | The plain of Kalloni is the greatest on the island, with a lot of water, rich colors, the sun that shines 3.000 hours per year, and the morning freshness, the "eersa" as the great poet Sapfo called it. |
