A village of Pelion is always a beautiful surprise, but there is none like Milies, which is one of the most beautiful villages of Pelion.

Located at an altitude of 400 meters and only 30 km east of Pelion, Milies is one of the most impressive villages on the mountain of the Centaurs, while it is one of the historical villages of the area that played an important role during the revolution of 1821 against the Turks.

A point of reference for the village is the central square with the centuries-old plane trees, under which the Church of the Greatest Brigadiers with its very simple exterior, which does not remind of any temple at all, since during the Turkish occupation the construction of majestic orthodox Christian buildings was avoided, so as not to provoke the Turks. There are twelve domes inside, remarkable post-Byzantine hagiographies and relics, and wood-carved iconostasis of the church that arouse interest.

What the temple is famous for, however, is its excellent acoustics, due both to the 48 overturned jars on the roof used to lighten the weight and to the existence of five fountains on the floor of the temple. Finally, this is the point where in May 1821, Anthimos Gazis proclaimed the revolution in Thessaly.

Finally, in the location of the high school of the village today, the famous "School of Milies" operated an important intellectual center of the time and the center of the liberation struggle of 1821.
