Aminciu, Greek: Μέτσοβο, Metsovo, is a city in northwestern Greece (Pindos Mountains) with a majority Vlach (Aromanian) population.
The Aromanian language is related to the vulgar Latin spoken in the Balkans during the Roman period.
The Aromanians were part of a Daco-Romanian migration from the north of the Danube between the 2nd and 10th centuries, supporting the theory that the population descend from the ancient Dacians and Romans.
The town is famous for its local cheeses (Metsovone and Metsovela, among others) and for its winemaking industries, including the Katógi vineyard of the Averoff family.
Metsovo is a popular winter vacation destination and ski resort town. The Metsovo Ski Centre is situated not far from the centre of Metsovo.
