Description
Moria is located 6.8 km north of Mytilene. One myth reveals that Moria took its name from the numerous mulberry trees that were in the area decades ago and the other one reveals that it took its name from the first residents of the village when it was called ‘Moraitika’.
Sights of the village include the Roman aqueduct located 600 meters west and Agios Vasilios church which has a unique picture of the Solomon Virgin (since 1766).
