A health complex run by professionals on Mount Athos has recently opened.
According to the website tilegrafimanews.gr, a new complex recently opened in the port of Daphne, offering amenities like a pharmacy and physiotherapy.
In keeping with Mount Athos’ monastic traditions, the hotel restricts bookings to men, including monks, workers, and pilgrims.
