Churches and Monasteries - South Pelion
Scattered all over the region of South Pelion, you will come across
a wonderful collection of various churches and monasteries, dating
back hundreds of years.
These churches and monasteries all played an important role in
the development of Pelion, and are extremely popular places to
visit for travellers to Pelion.
Many of the churches you will come across are beautifully decorated
inside with stunning frescoes and beautiful crafted iconostasis
and furnishings.
The churches you will find all vary in size and location - many
of the larger villages have their main church in the village square.
However, you will often find some very small and quaint churches
located in what appears to be the "middle of nowhere".
Religious tourism is a very popular tourism activity in Pelion,
and with the wonderful selection of interesting churches and monasteries
that one can see, it would be a shame not to pay a visit to some
of them.
We are currently preparing further information for this page which
will feature more detailed information about some of the most popular
and unique churches and monasteries that you can visit in the region
of South Pelion.
