Agion Oros has the richest treasures. It is richest in quality and quantity Greek region with Byzantine and post byzantine art works. Monumental painting, portable pictures, manuscripts with pictures or not, work of miniature art embroideries, art works made of wood, ceramics, but also functional ecclesiastical utensils, tools of laboratories, equipment and furniture of spaces, are few of the material testimonies of this cultural heritage. The cultural heritage of Mouth Athos is not limited only in the marvelous art works and unique heirlooms of Temples, Holy Abbeys, and cages but is also extended in the incomparable and also unique natural environment, the landscape that surrounds it. These are some of the innumerable places, which the “religious tourist” can visit.
The greatness and the beauty of Athos has been admired by the ancient, the medieval and the newer writers. Many of them write in lyric descriptions about the wild natural beauty of the eastest peninsula of Chalkidiki, that remained inalterable through the centuries, because of the absolute insulation that ensured to the peninsula the structure of solitary state and the particular protective legislation of its absolute independence. In Agion Oros today exist and function twenty abbeys in total.
