The initial construct is an architectural marvel built within a spectacular natural setting. Believer or not, you will enjoy this place. The magnificent natural environment on the route adds to the experience. The narrow roads require caution, especially to inexperienced drivers. Nice scenery, the road to the is awesome. The itself, although very well preserved and maintained, is a bit spoiled with the new buildings... Visit the place, since it is a landmark of the area. The of Proussos was named from the Icon of Panagia Prousiotissa from Proussa in Minor Asia. It is a historic building that has kept expanding due to donations. The location is impressive and it can get very busy as buses arrive from all over the world to visit this. We loved the old clock and the oldest part of the monastery. One star less as it looked more like a business modern that does not fit with the older part of the church. Still architectonically it is beautiful and you should definitely visit it. Very beautiful in a special location. It's amazing the feeling you get when you get there and face it. We enjoyed the view, we learned the history of the from a monk who wanted to explain it to us. Information: Better not to bother the monks unless they show you they are available. Some are there to get away from other people and get closer to god through prayer. Α very beautiful surrounded by a majestic natural environment. Beautiful monastry with a very old and small church with the ancient icon of The Holy Mother. A bit crowdy and hard to reach but very rewarding if you do the effort to come there. Mesmerizing with a breathtaking mountainous view. It is quite strenuous to access the due to the many road bends, however, when getting there you won't regret it.
