Gonia Monastery

Gonia Monastery

This impressive monastery looks traditional, with a humble exterior but grand domes as well. It was originally built back in the 9th century on the ruins of an ancient temple, but was then rebuilt in its current spot much later, with plenty of Venetian influences to boot. Byzantine relics remain inside.
