Metropolitan Church of the Presentation of the Lord

This church is beautiful, very photographic. Very friendly people around the church, very busy but felt like a very safe invironment. This whole area is breath taking.

This is the big, beautiful white church you can see from almost anywhere along the cliffs in Fira. The courtyard is peaceful and offers some incredible, sweeping views of the caldera. It's a great place to take a moment away from the busy main paths. The architecture is stunning, especially the contrast of the pure white walls against the blue sky. You don't need to spend a lot of time here, but it's a must-see landmark while exploring Fira.

Very beautiful Greek Orthodox church. Pictures are discouraged on the inside. The outside is stunning. Lovely location just off the path.

Great sights to see on Santorini. Everyone on the island are so friendly.

Absolutely stunning. Inside you will find the most amazing artwork, and it so peaceful and beautiful. They welcome anyone that wants to go in. They allow you to take photos just flash photography is prohibited and this is very likely to protect the amazing and probably historical artwork. The curtains are drawn inside. It has 3 doors to enter and exit welcoming all to enter. I’m a Sikh and went in with my family we all said a prayer and lit a candle. God’s house is open to everyone. Must visit!

A must see while in Fira. Steeped in history. Recomend attire suitable for entry to a church.

Hello everyone, today we are visiting the Metropolitan Church of Ypapanti Thira here in Santorini. As you can see, it is a beautiful church with its traditional white and blue architecture. This church is known for its beautiful frescoes and is a popular attraction for tourists. Unfortunately, since it is the winter season, the church is closed and there are no crowds. We tried visiting in the evening when it is usually open, but there was still no one inside. However, this gives us the opportunity to appreciate the quiet beauty of this place without any distractions. Despite being closed, this church still stands as a symbol of faith and community for the locals here in Santorini. It is also a reminder of the rich history and culture of this island. So if you ever get the chance to visit Santorini, do make sure to stop by this famous church and take a moment to soak in its peaceful atmosphere.

This is a really beautiful church, whether it is from the outside or inside. The visit inside the church is free and I think that, depending on the day you visit, they serve bread for communion inside the church. In the church, you cannot wear revealing clothing or shorts and you have to remove your cap. There are church members that sell things at the entrance of the church, such as cross etc. In front of the church, there is also a cute view.
