Monastery of Saint John the Theologian

The monastery of St. John the Theologian located in Souroti of Thessaloniki, where the tomb of St. Paisios is located, has been flocking since yesterday as faithful as it marks 30 years since his death.

Several of the faithful have been at the monastery since last night as every year on July 11 and 12 the Assumption of St. Paisios is celebrated.

The leading British magazine "Conde Nast Traveller" explains the reasons why Patmos and Lipsi are synonymous with "well-being" and should be at the top of the international traveler's choices, in a recent tribute in the context of the new program of  the Hellenic Tourism Organiztion-EOT's UK bureau.

Looking for a beautiful Greek island, a relaxing place where you can retreat to and enjoy a quality vacation? Imagine taking long walks, swimming in enchanting bays with crystal clear blue waters and eating at authentic local tavernas. Patmos is all that and more, it will mesmerise you with its remarkable serenity.
