Anavatos is a deserted village located 20km west of Chios Town. It was built on top of a hill, at an altitude of 450 meters above the sea with steep rocks, in true harmony with the natural environment.It is believed that this medieval settlement was founded for military purposes, particularly for the surveillance of the west coast of Chios. The village was abandoned after the catastrophic earthquake of 1881 and today it is a national monument for the island.
