Title: "Metelin - A Timeless Greek Island Village Scene: Petra, Lesbos" Metelin, a picturesque and historic village nestled on the eastern coast of Lesbos Island in Greece, is a living testament to the rich cultural heritage of this beautiful Mediterranean destination. This evocative photograph captures the essence of this quaint village, with its narrow, cobblestone streets lined with traditional whitewashed houses adorned with vibrant bougainvillea vines.
