Vythos (Greek: Βυθὀς, old name Dolos) is a village in Kozani regional unit, West Macedonia, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Voio, of which it is a member of the municipality unit of Pentalofos.〔(Kallikratis law ) Greece Ministry of Interior 〕 Βυθὀς means seabed, which is a paradoxical name for a village typified by its mountainous terrain and high altitude. People from Vithos are called Vithiotes or Dolianates. ==Topography== Vithos is built at an altitude of 1035 metres, in one of the most steep and isolated areas of Voio, literally into the arms of the mountain. The village is nestled in a steep ravine and surrounded by the dense germination of the Siupotista chestnut forest. The huge falls of Skotomeno Nero is situated in the forest besides Mavri Rahi or Mavriaha, an astonishing mountain chain which bonds Vithos to the peak of Prophet Ilias, through old macadam roads. This magical mountain world is dominated by towering beech, oak, chestnut and pine trees. Behind Mavriaha, following the big crest of the mountain, at an altitude of 1784 metres, is Petritsi - the third highest and most imposing peak of Voio. The lower part of Vithos is 1 kilometre from the adjacent village of Pentalofos and the upper part is situated under the huge rocks of Karaouli, or Mopunr Skopos, which overhangs at a height of 200 metres. This mountain is included in the record program of special sceneries of the National Technical University of Athens. The scenery of Vithos is one of the most mountainous of Greece. No other village of Voio is built on such wild and inaccessible place. The big mountains surrounding Vithos, keep the village absolutely hidden so that only one small part of the village is on view from the village Koryfi of the area of Tsotyli. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vythos」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
