Metelin Quay, Lesbos, Greece: A Glance into the Past Step back in time with this image of Metelin Quay in Lesbos, Greece, dating back to the 1920s. The black-and-white photograph presents a serene and picturesque scene of the quay side, where the calm waters of the harbor gently lap against the shore. The quay, lined with trees and dotted with boats, stretches out into the distance, inviting exploration. The historical charm of this quaint Greek port is evident in the architectural details of the buildings along the quay. The whitewashed houses with their colorful shutters and intricate stonework stand proudly, a testament to the rich history of the island. The quay's central church, with its tall bell tower and ornate dome, adds a spiritual element to the scene. The park area adjacent to the quay is a lush oasis of greenery, providing a tranquil contrast to the bustling activity of the port. The trees, filled with vibrant leaves, offer shade and a sense of peace to those who seek refuge from the sun. Boats of all shapes and sizes can be seen moored along the quay, their sails rolled up and secured. The boats, a vital part of the local fishing industry, add to the authenticity of the scene and serve as a reminder of the island's maritime heritage. Metelin Quay, with its timeless beauty and historical significance, invites us to imagine the stories and memories of the people who have walked its cobblestones and fished its waters. This photograph is a precious reminder of a bygone era and a testament to the enduring allure of the Greek islands.
