Davlia - Parnassos Greece
Davlia is situated approximately 28km from Livadia, and is built onto
a rock. The view from here is simply magnificent.
Davlia is a village situated on several levels on a slope on Parnassos,
and is a lovely village for exploring.
There are several cafe bars and place to eat. You will also find some bakers
shops and also a mini market, where you can pick up some basic supplies.
A little further our of the village, you can see the ruins of the ancient
city of Davlias, which are still standing today.
Well worth visiting is the Monastery of Kimiseos Tis Theotokou Jerousalem.
This is found about 6km out of the village and is built on the slope of
Mount Parnassos.
The monastery is a very beautiful and peaceful one, and also has a camping
facility located close by which is very popular and is always filled with
caravans.
The monastery itself is a very pretty one with lots of colourful flowers
amongst its green garden. The small chapel is beautifully decorated inside
and is worth visiting to admire the icons and other religious artifacts
found inside.
