Nice Monastery (with strict no photo policy) but even nicer Cafe next door!!
Monastery of Evangelistria的点评
点评:My wife and myself are currently holidaying in Skiathos (staying at the excellent Skia Premium Executive Apartments - Review to follow) and earlier today (making good use of the most user-friendly local bus service - fares were Euros2.20 per person each way) we visited the Monastery of Evagelistria.
It is set in its own (well maintained) grounds with an abundance of lovely flowers. Besides the Monastery itself, there isn’t a great deal to see and I was puzzled why a strict no photograph policy was in place in the Museuum where there were a number of interesting artefacts on display.
The Monastery’s Store is also well stocked and most of the constant stream of visitors we saw were going away with a little something.
Probably the best feature, however, was the Athos Cafe next door (Review to follow) and I would certainly encourage any visitor to the Monastery to spend some there - they won’t regret it!!
翻译:我和妻子目前正在斯基亚索斯岛度假(入住的是非常棒的斯基亚高级行政公寓——稍后会写点评),今天早些时候(我们充分利用了当地便捷的公交服务——单程票价每人2.20欧元),我们参观了福音修道院。
修道院坐落在维护良好的庭院内,繁花似锦。除了修道院本身,并没有太多其他可看之处。我感到困惑的是,博物馆里明明展出了不少有趣的文物,为什么却严格禁止拍照。
修道院的商店货品齐全,我们看到络绎不绝的游客几乎都买了些东西。
不过,最棒的要数隔壁的阿索斯咖啡馆了(稍后会写点评)。我强烈建议所有来修道院的游客都去那里坐坐——绝对不会后悔!
