Continuing our route to the north, there is the Monastery of Panagia Myrtidiotissa (our Virgin of the myrtle), on Myrsinidi, which is built on a smooth slope over the sea. 

It is celebrated on the 24th of September and it was founded in the beginning of the century by the archimandrite Christopher Seremelis. 

From the monastery terraces there is a wonderful view of the town of Chios and the island of Oinoussae.
