Tour Plan :
Grotto of Revelation - Exiled from Ephesus, St. John retired to Patmos, spending 18 months on the island. In this grotto - today a beautifully ornamented chapel - he supposedly received the visions resulting in the Book of Revelation. The chapel displays a stone that the saint used as his pillow.
Monastery of St. John - Founded in 1088, the monastery perches on a hillside above Chora. A single entrance leads through the 59 foot (18m) high walls. Your tour views the elaborate frescoes and visits the Christodoulos chapel. The monastery´s old Treasury is today a museum displaying a stunning collection of jeweled chalices, crowns, crucifixes, vestments and manuscripts.
