Depart
the port of Scala and enjoy a short journey to the village
of Chora, where the monastery of St. John is built within
the walls of a strong fortification. As you walk uphill
towards the entrance of the monastery marvel at this magnificent
structure, which was build 900 years ago, exceptional in
its architecture. View the courtyard, the monk's dining
room and the old bakery before you visit the main church
noting its outstanding frescoes and interior decoration.
Next, see the priceless ecclesiastical treasures housed
in the beautiful but small museum: books and manuscripts,
mosaics, Icons, splendid medieval textiles and vestments
as well as jewelry. Return to your motorcoach to continue
on to the nearby Grotto of the Apocalypse, where above stands
the Monastery of the Apocalypse, a sub-unit of the main
monastery. Walk down the steps to visit the Grotto of the
Apocalypse. Here you will see the silver niches in the wall
that mark the pillow and ledge used as a desk by the author
of the Book of the Revelation as well as the three-fold
crack made by the voice of God emphasizing the honor of
the Holy Trinity. Afterwards, drive back to the port of
Scala and enjoy some free time in this quaint and picturesque
harbor.
An interesting scenic island tour has been designed for
those guests who prefer to discover the beauties of Patmos
within the comfort of your air-conditioned motorcoach. Commending
your tour from the port of Scala you will drive to the dominating
central part of the island â01CChoraâ01D which
is the location of the Majestic Byzantine Monastery of the
St. John the Divine, built in 1088. Your sightseeing will
first bring you to the Grotto of the Apocalypse, then to
the windmills of Chora, once upon a time the landmark of
all Aegean islands.
Enjoy
the view, take photos and continue your drive to visit the
new active convent of Evangelismos (Annunciation) in the
south part of island, which has a significant number of
nuns who follow the traditions. Afterwards, continue your
drive around the island to see its landscape of outstanding
nature beauty comprised of rocky hills, dozens of tongues
of land reaching out into the sea, tranquil beaches and
many picturesque inlets. Before you arrive at the port,
we will halt for 10 minutes at the square of Kambos located
in the north part of island. Ending your tour in the port
of Scala you may enjoy some free time in this quaint and
picturesque little harbor.
