In the foothills of mount Olympos, just above the village of Vrondou, there is a small church in a picturesque location, called Agia Kori.There aren't any church services often, but pilgrims from greece and the neighbouring Balkan countries visit it all the time.

Agia Kory (saint daughter)!An other little church down the cliff by a little river. At the end of the road you will see the stairway to go down (90 steps). Saint daughter is not an official documented one from Orthodox Church but very strong believed from the locals, that’s why all that oblations hanging on trees all around. Little Waterfowls to the write from stairs 5min walking.Pictures at Ag. Kori- Vrondou traveloques
