Palaio Pyli (Greek Παλιό Πύλι (n. sg.)) is an abandoned village with a castle in the municipal district of Dikeos on the Greek Dodecanese island of Kos. The ruins lie on the northern slope of the island's mountains and offer very good views of the villages of Marmari (Kos) and Tigaki, the salt lake of Alykes and the sea.
