Ι.Μ. Αγίου Ιωάννου Προδρόμου
Our journey begins with the ancient monastery, located on the mountain. This monastery has been known since ancient times, it was founded in the XIII century.
The stone temple is decorated with frescos in Byzantine style and carving. Over the long years, he has been repeatedly pillaged and fired. Since 1986 there has been a women's monastery here. The sisters have cleaned it up and have been keeping it for decades.
It's very nice to be there, and what kind of views you can see from the mountain! Look!

Πλάτανος
A Greek cuisine restaurant is located 30 km from the monastery. That's where we'll have lunch in the shadow of the plane trees. A real oasis in the heat. The pies here are great. But the rest of the menu is nice, too. And for dessert, a ripe watermelon!
