Agion Taksiarchon Church

Reviewed By mariamF894QD - Athens, Greece

Situated in the central square of the village, it is one of most impressive churches I have visited. Its temple is dedicated to Pammegisti Archangels, while its style is three-aisled basilica. The frescoes are wonderful and also extraordinary (for instance you can see the zodiac circle) and have various styles. During its construction, special techniques had been used that strengthen the sounds, so the experience of attending the Mass or occasionally a concert of religious music is unique.

A great experience!! Beautiful places along the way, fun for both grownups and kids... the farm itself is also interesting, with many other animals. The farm is owned by a nice family, very friendly and welcoming.

Neolithic Settlement of Dimini

Reviewed By CarynandLesP - Bunbury, Australia

Well worth a visit. A compact site so not a lot of walking necessary, but plenty to see. Signage and explanations make it possible to create a mental image of the settlement. Includes a Mycnaean tholos (another one about 200m down the road) and a neolithic 'village' made up of a megaron surrounded by 14 one room areas. We were struck by how modern were the needs of neolithic people - very similar to our own times. Entrance fee - €2

Etz Hayyim Synagogue

Reviewed By shifraha - Norwich, United Kingdom

Our tour guide mentioned this synagogue as a place to go and see. So glad we did. It's an amazing renovation of an old disused synagogue. It's now back in use holding the weekly erev shabbat meetings and festivals. The place is run by volunteers and upstairs is a very informative display of all the history and renovation work. It is a living, working proof that people from all over the world from various faiths and backgrounds have and still do work together to keep Jewish history alive. The courtyard is lovely and any information you may want is given by the friendly volunteers. We went on a Friday and were invited to their erev shabbat meeting that evening but unfortunately we were on coach tour so would not be there by then. It is a gem of tranquility hidden away from the bustling rest of the town. Modest dress code advised as it is a place of worship.
