This is the entrance to Agios Georgios in the Peloponnese, Greece…..
This place is REALLY special – the tiny Byzantine chapel is actually built inside a sinkhole, tucked in underneath the cliff…
The approach is like something from Alice in Wonderland! – not quite down the rabbit hole but …….
Unlucky for us, the chapel was closed so we never got to see the 13th century murals inside….
Oh yes, that looks very special, even without being able to see the murals inside!
It was a bit off the beaten track but worth seeking out – it’s lovely isn’t it…
Wow, what a unique place, Marie 🙂 xx
It is Aiva – and a bit overlooked tourist wise because there’s just so many amazing sites in that part of Greece..
Very cool!
I think so too!!! We’d trouble finding it and then another car pulled up as we were leaving so certainly not overwhelmed with visitors…
That almost makes it even better. It’s like your own little secret. 🙂

This is amazing.
Thanks Dan – we’d spent the morning sight seeing and I was ready for the beach so we almost gave up on finding the place – so glad we didn’t!!!
That’s super cool!
Isn’t it – I love the gateway and the tunnel – it’s all being very well looked after..
How interesting! I’m sorry you didn’t get to go inside.
We didn’t really mind, Kellye – we loved the outside and the surroundings. We’ve come across a lot of locked churches in Greece and Cyprus so we weren’t surprised.
These are so unique. 😊👍
My favourite part of travelling – finding little treasures like this…
Wow, what a special find. I’ve never seen anything like it. 🙂
And it’s probably not even unique – there are bound to be similar little chapels tucked away in all sorts of odd places… But I can’t imagine many in as unusual a setting as this one.
Definitely very special, one to be treasured.
It is indeed Mari🥰 😘
