Lísos

Shortly before Palaiokhóra a road branches off on the left and runs east by way of Rodováni to the bay of Soúyia (ancient Syia). From here a path leads over the hill to the west into the neighboring bay of Áyios Kyàrikos (more easily reached by boat from Palaiokhóra). This was the site of ancient Lisos. The custodian takes visitors to see the temple in the sanctuary of Asklepios, which preserves the walls of the naos, mosaic pavements, the base of the cult image and (to the left of this) a box for offerings.

Must-see attractions nearby:
The water of the sacred spring flows under the temple to a fountain. There are also remains of Roman houses and, on the western slope, Hellenistic and Roman tombs.

On the shore is the chapel of Áyios Kyàrikos, and to the west of the temple a chapel dedicated to the Panayía, both built over the remains of early Christian basilicas.
