Ai Giorgis Valsamitis

The church of St. George Valsamitis has a very interesting architecture style. Until the Byzantine period it was an autonomous monastery and then it became a part of Chozoviotissa church. The frescos on the walls were done in different periods and you will be able to admire the 18th century (or even earlier) wall paintings when you visit. The inhabitants of Amorgos and of all the surrounding islands can tell you how important the “oracle” –the water spring that flows from inside the temple- was for them.

Tholaria

This is one of the most beautiful villages of the island as it maintains its traditional architecture. It has many old neighborhoods: Atsidofolia, Seladi, Mylos or Plaka, Pano Gitonia, Vorina and Skali. On warm summer nights the central narrow alley, which is adjacent to the courtyard of Agii Anargiroi church, comes alive. Everyone who happens to be in the area will go to the traditional café of Mangas for ‘rakomela’ (raki with honey) and snacks.
