Andros |
Andros, the most northerly
island in the Cyclades and the second-largest in the group, is also among
the most beautiful. Successive ranges of mountains with steep sides,
separated by gorges, river-beds and three large valleys planted with olive
trees, figs, oranges, lemons and vines through which run numerous streams
go to make this a landscape which often goes beyond what we think of as
typically 'Cycladic'. The mountains end as rocky cliffs or steep
promontories, while at the mouths of the valleys are sandy beaches.

lies very close to the southern tip of Andros. This is the holy island of
Our Lady, which in August is swamped by pilgrims who have come to pray in
Her church or in fulfillment of a vow. |
