Panagia of Samarina
In a village surrounded by dense forests and crystal clear springs, a three-aisled single storey basilica honours the Annunciation of the Theotokos, dominating with its size and with the branches of the pine tree, which have spread out over the dome of its sanctuary for the last one hundred years, as if searching for divine grace. The church was built in the second decade of the 19th century and was decorated a few years later by local painters, who also adorned the wonderful wood-sculpted iconostasis.
