About this experience
Two different but amazing visits await you on this tour! First, you will head to the top of the mountain to the Monastery of the Virgin Mary at Tsambika, who has become the patroness of Rhodes. Women from all over the world come here to pray for children, happiness, and family well-being in front of the miraculous icon. Then, you will relax on the white-golden sands of Tsambika Beach and cool off in the crystal-clear waters.
What to Expect
Path to the mountain top
The journey will start from your hotel as we head towards the village of Archangelos, nestled among the olive groves at the foot of the sacred Tsambika rock. Once at the summit, you will enjoy breathtaking panoramas of the island: from here, you can see the beach with its golden sand and the bell tower of the lower temple of the Virgin Mary, where the miraculous icon is kept. I will tell you why this place is rightfully considered one of the most energetically powerful corners of the world.
Legends of the Monastery of the Virgin Mary at Tsambika
The road will lead you to the monastery, which thousands of pilgrims visit annually. Legends say that this is where the source of miraculous power lies, granted by the icon of the Virgin Mary discovered here in the early 15th century. I will tell you why the saint is called Tsambika, how it happened that the temple was founded on the land of a Muslim merchant, what was on this sacred rock before, and what the miraculous koboskini and tama are.
Appeal to miraculous powers
You will be able to ask the Virgin Mary to fulfill your wishes. People turn to the patroness of Rhodes, Tsambika, for health and family happiness, but most often women pray for the gift of motherhood and a good husband. If you wish, I will tell you about this ritual, and at the local shop, you will be able to purchase everything you need for it.
Famous Tsambika Beach
Our trip will end with swimming at the beach of enchanting beauty located at the foot of the upper Tsambika temple on the 'golden sands'. White-golden sand, crystal-clear water, and an 800-meter beach will provide plenty of pleasure and impressions. Those who want to try windsurfing, flyboarding, or simply ride inflatable slides can do so by renting their chosen entertainment right on the beach.
