Tinos is one of the biggest Greek islands of the Cyclades. Tinos is full of lovely, picturesque mountains and fishing villages. Its villages built on the slopes of the many mountains are usually surrounded by vegetation and are full of traditional stone houses, decorated by local craftsmen. Among the most interesting villages are the large settlements of Falatado, Steni and Pirgos.
