Kalchas ( Greek: Κάλχας, Turkish: Kalfa), is a village and a community in the municipality of Komotini, in the Rhodope regional unit, East Macedonia and Thrace, Greece. It is located in a flat area, 5 km northeast of Komotini. The community consists of the villages Kalchas, Iampolis, Megali Ada and Mytikas. At the 2021 census, the population was 1,074 for the community. [1]
The village is crossed by a small stream (known locally by the name Trelocheimarros), tributary of the Vozvozis, that often overflows during the winter causing problems in transportation. In 2011 the Army has placed a military bridge over the stream that improved significantly the transportation. [2] The main occupation of the village residents is the cultivation of tobacco. Just outside the village passes the vertical axis of Egnatia Odos (A2) which leads to the Greek-Bulgarian border. (Komotini - Nymphaea - Makaza - Kardzhali)
