According to the myth, the goddess Aphrodite, the goddess of love, beauty, and sexuality, was so angry with her husband Hephaestus that she was thrown out of Mount Olympus and fell onto the shores of Lemnos. The island's inhabitants, all women, took pity on the goddess and offered her shelter.
As time passed, the women of Lemnos were transformed by the goddess's presence, and they became known for their beauty and allure. Men from far and wide were drawn to the island, and the goddess Aphrodite's curse was lifted.
To this day, the island of Lemnos is famous for its stunning landscapes and welcoming locals, who embody the spirit of the myth of Aphrodite.
