Saint Panteleimon church

What is worth visiting is the church of Saint Panteleimon on the west boundary of the village with magnificent mosaics on its floor.

The representations on the mosaics are of unique art, and depict pictures of nature ( flowers, peacocks, wild animals)and belong to an older church in the 6th century, where the present temple was built. lf you want to get into the church , you must ask us to give you directions how to get the key ,because the mosaics are of great value and the church is locked.
