Explore the monastery, which has become a significant pilgrimage site for many believers seeking spiritual solace and healing.

Next, visit Paliachora, also known as the “Mystras of Aegina,” the medieval capital of the island. Located on a hill opposite the Monastery of Agios Nektarios, Paliachora was established in the 9th century as a refuge from pirate attacks and was inhabited until the early 19th century.
