Monastery Vidiani, Lassithi, Greece

The Vidiani Monastery is located at the foot of Mount Loulodaki, in Lassithi Plateau. It was founded in the mid-19th century by monk Methodius on the ruins of a former monastery. The monastery was set to fire during the revolution of 1866 but was soon rebuilt.
There you can find a small cafe and buy traditional natural products like oils and soap. It's the ideal place to make a small stop while exploring the Lassithi Plateau.

How to go: The monastery is included in some bus excursions to Lassithi Plateau. Otherwise, you can reach the monastery by car, as public transport to Lassithi Plateau is scarce.
