Monastery of Saint John the Theologian

Highlight • Religious Site

The Monastery of St. John sits like a fortress high on the mountain in the middle of the wonderful old white houses of Chora. (The Monastery of St. John and Chora are world heritage sites.) The monastery can be seen from afar when you take the boat to Patmos. A visit is always worthwhile, as there is so much interesting to discover and experience there.

Chora Town Square

Highlight • Settlement

It used to be a really lovely place, back when it wasn't completely filled with gray seating, and the few beautiful blue chairs still left plenty of space to enjoy this lovely spot! As a result, the small square has lost much of its charm. Pushed right to the side is the small bar with its blue chairs and small blue tables. Hopefully, it can last a long time!

In the evenings, the posh crowd gathers here at the gray seating. That's not my kind of place.

Alleys in Chora, Patmos

Highlight • Settlement

Anyone on Patmos should definitely walk through the narrow streets of the "Chora" (a world cultural heritage site). The "Chora" extends around the "St. John's Monastery", which stands like a fortress on the mountain. The atmosphere of the closely spaced white houses with the bright pink bougainvilleas and other wonderful plants often hanging over the walls and the ever-flashing views down to the blue sea is simply magical. There is always something new to discover.

Cave of the Apocalypse

Highlight • Religious Site

A truly tranquil and shady spot to take a rest on your way up or down the mountain. No cover as of April 2024.

Skala Town Square

Highlight • Settlement

The cozy harbor village of Pátmos impresses with its extraordinary charm, especially in the evening hours when most of the day-trippers have left.
