Mount Athos – The Voice of Heaven

Mount Athos, an exclusive destination for men, not for misogynistic reasons, but from the concept of maintaining a moral conduct; a space conducive to the work of virtues by both local ascetics and pilgrims; the time of those here is divided between prayer during the night and the multiple listenings that follow the single meal of the day.

A communal monastic life, celebrating its anniversary for almost a millennium, still maintains the course of prosperity of transcendental elan. This spiritual place par excellence has not known the application of the concept of decline until now, but reaching its peak has endlessly perpetuated loops in the direction of this vein, always upwards, not a millimeter towards hell.

Incidence through the prism of the spiritual of dozens of cultural sets only on the peaks of a single mountain; the unique architectural pieces, the monasteries, distinct a priori by origin, transform the external appearance of the peninsula into the multi-valent palette, with a universal character, of Orthodoxy. You don't have to dock to fascinate your aesthetic sense of sight with these jewels because a sea voyage is enough.
