The region takes its name from the thermal springs located there for centuries. Archaeological finds indicate that during the antiquity, the Greek goddess Artemis was worshipped as protector of the curative springs. After archaeological excavations in the past years next to the beach, the layers and traces of five cities built one over the other were revealed, the oldest of which dates back to the middle of the 3rd millennium. The magnificence and the radiance of the religious and therapeutic centre of Thermi is also testified by numerous archaeological finds, including the foundations of buildings and inscriptions. Some of these relics are exhibited at the outdoor archaeological site of Horafa. At the beginning of the 20th century, the region of Thermi was popular for its luxurious hotel, Sarlitza Palace, which was built on the plans of French architects. For about thirty years, it received great recognition, attracting visitors and celebrities from all over the world. Today only the hot baths are operational. Thermi has not lost yet its charm and the visitor has the possibility to admire the wonderful natural surroundings gifted with numerous qualities. The endless olive grooves, the oleanders and the osiers, all over the ravines, compose the greenest landscape on the island. The medieval rural villages, hidden among the hills, still remain intact from the modern tourism' s effects. The past of this place can be seen through the marble bas-relief on the traditional houses' walls, through the ancient columns on the houses' thresholds, through the ancient pots' fragments shattered all over the area' s coasts, through the miraculous monasteries, as well as the old churches and chapels .
