★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Agios Ioannis Rodaki (ancient sanctuary)
▪️The monastery of Agios Ioannis in Rodaki is a particularly interesting spot with an exceptional vista overlooking the plain of Vassiliki and looking to the range of Agios Petros. It was probably built in 1654 by the monk Mitrophanes Chamosfakidis on the site of a doric temple dedicated to the goddess Demeter.
▪️The monastery is a blend of pagan and Christian architecture with a fascinating aesthetic result: the altar for instance rests on the capital of a column from the ancient temple and, in the churchyard, doric capitals and part of a paved flooring can be seen.
▪️The church had the reputation (doubtless because of its link with Demeter, goddess of fertility) that childless couples who prayed in the church would have a baby.
