Monastery of Arcadi, Crete

by melissa dpgr.gr


The upper floor of the monastery houses the monks' cells, across the church.
The ground floor comprises the historic dining room where monks' heads were cut on the tables by the Turks yielding yatagans during the Arcadi monastery holocaust.

Door in Matsouki, on the island of Kefalonia, Greece.

Blue which almost vibrates, blue which stops the heat.
