<strong>Gozo</strong><br />
Blend the history<br />
and the myth with<br />
green landscapes<br />
The small island of <strong>Gozo</strong> is full of myth.<br />
In Homer’s epic poem, the Odissey, the hero<br />
Ulysses was held in the island of Ogygia by<br />
the nymph Calypso for seven years. Some<br />
interpretations say that the Ogygia Island<br />
is in fact <strong>Gozo</strong>!<br />
But not everything is myth; <strong>Gozo</strong> has had<br />
settlements since 5,000 B.C. the ruins and<br />
historical sites that can be seen now made<br />
this island a paradise for history lovers.<br />
One of the colonizers of the island, the<br />
Castilians, gave <strong>Gozo</strong> its current name,<br />
which means "JOY". Blend the history and<br />
the myth with green landscapes, a relaxed<br />
rural environment, the beach, the sun and<br />
the warm hospitality of the Gozitans and<br />
the result is an unforgettable experience<br />
and a holiday destination to return to year<br />
after year.<br />
<strong>Concorde</strong> <strong>Travel</strong> offers a selection of great<br />
hotels and self catering villas.<br />
