If you are walking by, take a peek inside. Beautiful old church close to Old Town. At one corner of the plaza you can see where the man paints the religious paintings for the churches. Beautiful! There is nothing else really in that plaza.

From the uplifting facades to stunning interior, it’s an exceptional place of worship at the heart of the town. Dedicated in 1702 during the later Venetian rule it has fame for a darker deed carried out in its precincts. This was the assassination in 1831 of Ioannis Kapodistrias, the first ruler of the newly independent Greek State, by his political enemies. A gorgeous nave is truly inspiring. Festooned with ornateness, it leads to the exceptional iconostasis that is embellished with holy imagery. A glorious Pantocrator is at the dome apex. A deep azure ceiling is bejewelled with stars, a marvellous celestial vista.

It’s a beautiful place of worship, dating from the 15th century. Soft light hues lend an absorbing attraction to the exterior and facades. It is renowned for the great iconostasis, highly embellished with holy images. A vision along the nave lined with fabulous chandeliers and bounded by slender columns is marvellous. An awe-inspiring ceiling is gloriously crowning. A splendid throne and pulpit are further evidence of the church’s importance in the life of the city.
