    20 Top Things to Do in Pelion https://travelgreecetraveleurope.com/2017/01/31/top-things-to-do-in-pelion/ 1) Damouhari Port: Mama Mia Filmed Here The traffic-free coast of Damouhari has a more recent claim to fame as the location of the “Dancing Queen” scene in the Hollywood movie Mama Mia (2008) starring Meryl Streep. After our hike through Tsagarada we walked through the scenic port. I loved taking in the stunning rocky landscape, which seemed to be both wild and stunning at the same time. Damouhari Port, Pelion, to the right. Meryl Streep was here! 2) The Pelion Train The Pelion Train, also known as the Little Train of Pelion, is a narrow gauge (60 cm) train that seemed to me like a toy train with its maintained vintage look. It’s even parked in a colorful little train station. The train began operating more than a century ago between Volos and Lehonia in 1895 and between Lehonia and Milies in 1903. It covers 29 kilometers, on tracks that run through verdant forests and across 12 bridges. Tip: Return tickets are 18€ for adults and 10€ for kids. Further information for tickets, timetables, contact the Travel Office of Volos TRAINOSE +30 24210 39723. 3) Taksiarchon Church / Church of the Archangels I rate a visit to this church as one of the top things to do in Pelion because the stunning interior frescoes took me off guard. Located in the main square of Millies, the actual construction date of the church is unknown. However, it was renovated in 1741.

In total, Philippidis recorded 232 settlements, in a credible manner, as demonstrated by comparison with information from other sources of the period. The examination of this data reveals the very strong presence of mainly Christian settlements of small dimensions, not exceeding 100 homes, located at relatively low elevations. Also notable is the presence of a few cities exceeding 1000 homes of largely Muslim population, as well as “islets” of settlements with Muslim or mixed populations in flatlands. The settlement complex was supported by monasteries, berths, bazaars and inns, which constituted functional components of the financial activities.
