Quiet and nice
very old in a nice setting. It is a nuns monastery, not very visited or at least was not in September but worth visiting.

A Peaceful Place
We drove up a high hill to view the city from above but it was raining and the trees mostly blocked the view. There appeared to be a service going on. At nearly 500yearsold, this monastery is in excellent condition. Thefrescoes are mostly gone though. I think this was fortified. It looked like it had beautiful gardens.

Something different in the middle of a city
It is of historical value especially to Greeks who created this monastery. You can take a rest here it is very calm.
