The busiest of the villages of the Asfendhiou area is Zia, with its appealing smattering of churches and craft shops selling local honey, weavings, and handmade soaps. There is also a small nature park, which has various game and farm animals for kids to feed. Buses run here three times a day direct from Kos Town in summer, and the commercialization of the village has skyrocketed in recent years. But one thing the crowds can't take away is the views, with a handful of open-air tavernas, such as the excellent Oromedon, offering a fine vantage point for the village's coveted sunsets. It also makes a good base for walks in the surrounding countryside.
