Orthodox Shrines of Northern Greece

Trip Description

The picturesque peninsula of Chalkidiki is not only the gem of Northern Greece but also a center of Orthodox spirituality. Scattered across its stunning landscapes and hills are monasteries that maintain a deep connection to the sacred Mount Athos, as they were all established through the prayers and efforts of Athonite monks.

On this excursion, you will visit the peaceful Convent of St. John the Theologian, founded with the guidance of the revered Athonite elder, Paisios the Athonite, the ancient and austere Convent of St. Anastasia, and Ormylia, the largest convent in Greece.
