The city’s most emblematic landmark is the lighthouse, which is one of the oldest in the world, having been built four centuries ago.

Many other constructions and monuments such as Traditional Clock (roloi) and the Market place (Agora) are integrated in the modern city life and are the witnesses of the city’s recent history.
