What a gem in an unexpected place! Definitely worth a visit. The mosaics are well preserved. The whole building is beautiful and located next to a lovely green hill. A magical place! Open Wednesday to Sunday 8.30-15.30, admission free. Not accessible for disabled people.

Took an hour from ancient corinth. This monastery is a must to visit place in Athens. Fresco was really impressive some were 11th century and some were 18th century. Originally this site was Apollo temple. And you can see columns and stones. No entry fee and when i enter the monastery a staff explained some historical story. Really really impressive. Recommend to visit and never disappointed.
