Customer Reviews
Lovely place to see but not much to do. Went there with group tour .
Such a beautiful place!
One of the most welcoming and beautiful places in the world, all of the nuns are so very kind and emulate the love of Christ. If you’re in Crete, this is a must-visit no matter where you are traveling from. Liturgies are on the weekends and start at 8:00AM. We have a forever connection to St. Porphyrios by God’s grace from this visit.
