Kalopetra Monastery 🇬🇷

#summerdestinations My visit to Kalopetra Monastery in Rhodes was a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of tourist hotspots. Located about 50 km from Rhodes Town, this hidden gem is free to enter, which was a pleasant surprise. The monastery, set amid lush greenery, is renowned for its tranquil atmosphere and simple, elegant architecture. Wandering through the serene grounds and visiting the small church was a calming experience. The view from the monastery is also quite lovely, offering a quiet spot to reflect and enjoy nature. After my visit, I explored the nearby village of Asklipio, where I enjoyed a delicious meal at a local taverna and admired the traditional village life. Kalopetra Monastery is a must-visit for anyone seeking a serene retreat and a touch of local culture. 🕊️🌿 #kalopetramonastery #rhodes #explorerhodes #peacefulretreat #summeringreece
