“St Paul’s church Nea Fokea Greece”

Oct 2019

Would not have missed this for the world, highlight of our trip! it was a ‘bad weather day’ but it didn’t matter. Such a unique place, like nothing I’ve ever seen before. Not an easy access, but my 90 year old Mother managed it, and she loved every second. I would recommend a visit very highly.

A step into the past

Oct 2019

This place is really a must visit if you are in the area. It's so surreal that this cave, at one point, housed St Paul and many others. It was not easy to get inside to the prayer room but it was well worth it. To touch the stones in the cave is like touching something of the past. to be in the small cave is to be in the same room where St Paul was. Pretty cool. There was also a cistern where water was, according to the information sheet on the door and according to stories handed down, after praying, the water in the cistern flowed to sustain St Paul. The water is still there and is very clear.

This is really a nice place to visit.

Unique place

Aug 2019 • Friends

This place is beautiful and really unique, you may haven't seen anything like this before. The entrance is gorgeous, but be prepared: the end of the tunnel is really narrow and the ceiling is really low.

Totally Unexpected and Well Worth Visiting!

Apr 2019 • Couples

My wife and myself were taken on a brief visit to Nea Fokea Village this afternoon and I, mistakenly, thought the main attraction would be the impressive Byzantine Watchtower.

In the event, the attraction of greatest interest was to be found on the opposite side of the road - St Paul’s Church which is actually inside a cave. It is not, however, easy to navigate and the gap to reach the end of the cave is extremely narrow and one that many people may find too challenging. For those who do, there is a ‘Holy Water’ well.

All in all, a very pleasant surprise and one that anyone visiting the Byzantine Watchtower should certainly take the trouble to cross the road!

Amazing experience

Sep 2018 • Couples

This place traditionally goes right back to the Apostle Paul. A short low tunnel takes you to a well and small chapel area. You really have to crawl on your knees to get to the well, symbolic of a spiritual journey.

The chapel area is more of a shrine, with intriguingly placed articles of children’s clothing. One wonders what the significance is.

Must for visit

Jul 2018

Only the thought that this place is almost the same age as Christ. Inside you feel incredible power of history. According to stories of this Church, Paul the Apostel, who is considered one of the most important figures of the Apostolic Age, used to baptize people more then thousand years ago. Visit and feel it!

Worth the visit

Jul 2018 • Couples

It was on our list for visiting and it was really impressive. Indeed, I was with a child and I got too scared to continue to the prayer room. The place is very narrow and if you are too big you might not fit.
