2nd of May 2022. Group of 3.
With only 4 monks and one operator at this monastery, you can hear your own thoughts. With the devoutness, contemplation and prayers ‘hanging in the air’, you will calm yourself. This quiet atmosphere can give someone the sense of the beyond. Maybe you even reach the satori state.
We enjoyed so much our visit, since the frescoes of the saints are all unique. We admired especially the extremely rare image of our Virgin Mary breastfeeding the small Jesus Christ.
Moreover, this historic temple is so well preserved and polite Mr.Dimitris know its history. He told us all about the monastery’s foundation during the Byzantine era, as in the 14th c.. The painter Efstathiou made some of the wall paintings during the renovation of 18th c.. However, you can separate them with your eye with the earlier of 17th c.. Mr. Dimitris told us also how it has been renovated around 1700. Furthermore, its current form is due to the restoration work carried out around 1960, by the ‘Baron's Michael Tostista Foundation.
While the outside chapel is dedicated to the new martyr Agios Nikolaos from Metsovo, who martyred in 1659.
We also enjoyed the tour to the cellar where there was a wooden barrel for wine about 14 tons. Back home we tasted the delicious rubini wine Imperator and oak honey that we took from the monastery.
Leaving from the monastery, as you are going down the mountain you will pass 2 crystal clear waterfalls.

Very small but picturesque monastery a few miles away from Metsovo, if you visit by car. You can always walk there from the central square as it is not very far but a bit difficult to return if you are not fit. The monastery is not operational however there is a nice gentleman who is in charge & gave us a small tour and some information on the monastery. The church has very nice hagiographies and the surrounding landscape is amazing.

It was a short drive from our hotel to Agiou Nikolaou. We parked at the foot of the steps and made the long climb to the monastery. We both were wearing shorts. The monk let me in but my wife had to put on a wrap around skirt. The chapel and murals were very nice and they allowed you to take photos. At the top there was a large area with a panoramic view of the valley.

An old monastery, very close to metsovo and beside egnatia highway. A great experience for people who believe or not. I highly recommend it.

Found this monastery using Michelin site. Stopped here on way between Ioaninna and Meteora. On the day we visited, we were the only visitors. Very quiet and peaceful. Greeted by the caretaker who was very nice and hospitable. Took us into the chapel and let us have a nice unhurried visit. Bought some liquor made by the monks. They also had honey for sale. No pictures inside which was not unusual. Note, the drive up the hill is quite steep and parking at the top is limited. May be best to park down below and walk up. You probably need the exercise more than the stress of trying to back up your car from above.

It is a short easy walk to the monastery, which is beautiful from both the inside and outside. It is open from 9-12 and 16-19 hours. You use the iron grip to knock and a lovely Greek man opens the door. Start your walk next to the bank at the end of the square and follow the path down. You will not regret it!

yios Nikolaos Monastery (14th century)
It is just a 30-minute walk into the valley. The 18th century frescoes are created in Epirote style, and the two images of the Pantocrator (Godhead), one in each dome are really impressive as staring down on the congregation.
The Monastery is down into valley (follow signs near National Bank of Greece; turn left where paving ends).
We found it closed but we enjoyed the walk to get there.

It is about 30 minutes down to the monastery and 1 hour back up the hill. It is a pleasant walk. U can also drive. Also check out the winery, cheese factory and the art gallery.

An amazing tiny chapel smothered in 14th century wall art. A strenuous walk to/from Metosovo town centre so be prepared and check opening hours.
