As I was driving on the mountains of northern Greece, I came across more churches, situated in the middle of nowhere, away from villages. They seem to be built of stones, the same traditional way like the one shown in my previous post. Only the three I am showing you today are not as old as the previous one.
Όπως οδηγούσα στους δρόμους της Πίνδου, στην περιοχή των Γρεβενών, συνάντησα κι άλλα εκκλησάκια, στη μέση του πουθενά. Όλα είναι φτιαγμένα με πέτρα σαν και την εκκλησία της προηγούμενης ανάρτησης, αλλά δεν είναι τόσο παλιά.

Πολύ ωραία εκκλησάκια,όλα με πέτρα χτισμένα.
Το τελευταίο είναι και πιο περιποιημένο με κήπο και έλατα.
Ωραίες φωτογραφίες και με χωρίς ήλιο.
Καλό καλοκαίρι και από εμένα...
I love the one in the field with the bell tower beside it. They are so small but so beautiful. One can imagine the small congregations gathered for worship there.

Always a great find when you stumble across a simple, out of the way chapel. Bless!
These are great examples of why we all need to get out of town occasionally. There is much to see out there! Nice photos of some fantastic churches...
the 3rd one is just so quaint!!! lovely!
I do love these churches, Costas, and your captures are superb as always! Such a beautiful settings and lovely blue skies! Have a wonderful week!
The first 2 look absolutely antique
Κωστή οι άνθρωποι είχαν αισθητική, έχω θυμώσει στο χωριό μου γιατί χάριν της "ευκολίας" έχουν κακοποιήσει κάποια κτίσματα.
Καλησπέρα.
I love it when I come across churches and chapels in the middle of nowhere.
Very beautiful! Love the stone-work.
Πετρόχτιστα! Απ'τα ωραιότερα. Απ'τα αγαπημένα μου!
Oh how charming these churches are Costas. I wonder why they are so far from a city. A church needs people. I wonder what their stories, these old churches would tell if they had voices to speak~
Seeing these churches of stone makes me wonder how long they todo to build considering their remoteness and the fact that all work was done by manual labor, not machinery. They are beautiful testimonies to God and man. The last one is very picturesque.
