3 unique villages of the Aegean worth visiting - Part 1
It is known as the village with the colorful "wires". At the beginning of the 19th century, a farmer of the village digging in his field found a female statue, the famous Venus of Milos. However, the main reason why the village of Klima has become known is because it is a small coastal settlement with a maximum of ten permanent residents and the beautiful underground "wires" of which it is composed.

These Cycladic buildings, the so-called "wires", which are also found in other parts of the island, are the places where the fishermen dragged their boats with wires in the winter and stored them there to be protected from bad weather. That's where they got their name from. The specific wires in the Vine are two-legged. That is, according to tradition, the ground floor functions as a storage area for the fishermen's boats and the first floor as a residence for their families. Today, many of these white houses, built on the waves and in the volcanic rocks, function as accommodation.

The village also stands out for its wonderful sunset and now attracts the interest of visitors worldwide. Many of them come not only to hang out and take pictures in front of the wires with the large wooden doors and wooden balconies painted in many bright colors, but also choose it for their stay.

The picturesque Klima is about 5 km from Adamantas and 3 km from Plaka. If you visit Milos this year, look for the last fishermen in this village and also visit the cave temple of Agia Paraskevi. Between Klima and Trypiti, there is the Ancient Theater of Milos and the famous Catacombs, the ancient underground mass cemetery that is one of the most important early Christian monuments in the whole world.
