Η εκκλησία με τις χρυσές σκεπές και το νεκροταφείο γύρω της φαίνεται ήσυχο το απόγευμα. Πάντα μου αρέσει να περνάω από τέτοια μέρη.

Νίκη Βασιλείου I would like to see this place.
Мариана Иванова The cemetery around the church is one of the oldest in the area, some crosses are still from the 18th century.
Снежана Стојановска I saw the photo, it looks nice. Is the church open to visitors in the afternoon and when are liturgies held there?
رانيا معلوف Yes, the afternoon is indeed quiet there. I spend after the shift at the hospital and I like that it is not crowded.
Marko Lukić The church with the golden roofs seems to me to be from the 17th century, judging by the way the walls are built and the way the domes are placed. The old stone is clearly visible even in this picture.
Jakub Svoboda The place looks really peaceful, especially the old crosses around me caught my attention.
Teresa Romero The church with those golden roofs is that of San Dimitrios in the area of ​​the old vineyards. The cypress trees in the cemetery were planted after the epidemic of 1821 to mark the new graves.
Михаил Лебедев I wonder where this was filmed? And what time of year was it?
Daniel Davis The crosses from the 18th century are what caught my eye too. Any idea what time the liturgies are on Sundays there?
ნიკოლოზ გელაშვილი The gold-roofed church has rough gray stone walls that show it was built around the 17th century, the joints are wide and irregular like in old Byzantine constructions.
Иван Атанасов This church is indeed from the 17th century, you can tell by the thickness of the walls and the way the stones are arranged. Sunday liturgies begin at 8:30.
Марко Николовски Yes, Sunday liturgies are at 8:30, I was there last month.
Ольга Мельник The golden roofs look even more intense in the afternoon light.
Αντώνης Κωνσταντίνου The golden roofs look more intense in the afternoon as Olga says. 8:30 service on Sunday is early for me who works Saturday night.
Сергій Мороз I would like to see this place in person some Sunday.
Христина Панченко The golden roofs in the afternoon light show a deeper yellow than I expected. The stones on the walls are very uneven, as if they were laid without smoothing them at all.
Валентина Соловьёва The church of Saint Demetrius is the one with the golden roofs, isn't it? The stones in the walls do look as thick and clumsy as they say.
Hélène Martin The golden roofs look more intense in the afternoon light, but what I noticed are the cypress trees standing right next to the church wall. They are not straight, they are slightly inclined to the right.
Thomas Johnson The cypresses by the wall do lean a bit, just like Hélène said. The old vineyard soil around there is still quite poor which is why those trees never grew straight. Liturgy at 8:30 on Sunday is a bit early for me too.
