Tranquil Setting

Top part of a old church up in the mountains.
The church is still used today for Sunday services. The parishioners come from all over the area to partake of the service.

Church right in middle of a block on busy Athinas

In Athens, you'll find churches in the least expected places. For example, there's a church right in the middle of a block on busy Athinas street, and there's a church that Ermou street surrounds.

We passed by this church building on the way to the Acropolis. I thought the building was so pretty, so I had to take pictures.
