The Chrisopigi Monastery is one of the most famous places to visit on the island of Sifnos. The monastery is situated near Faros, a charming fishing village, and both are certainly worth visiting. Located on the water's edge, adjacent to Apokofto beach, visitors can enjoy both sites simultaneously, along with the spectacular ocean views behind the monastery.
Constructed in 1650, the monastery houses the miraculous icon of Panagia Chrisopigi and is a popular site for local weddings and christenings during the summer. It is advisable to visit early in the day.
The island is a must-visit, with unforgettable views especially during sunset or under the full moon.
The monastery is very popular among foreign visitors, and many Christians visiting the island choose it for weddings and christenings throughout the year.
