Monasteries in Greece
This page lists 164 monasteries that have a page of their own, grouped by region. Each page has Wikidata's description, the nearest airport and ferry port in a straight line and the best months to visit.
The list is cut at the sights covered by the most Wikipedia language editions, then those with a heritage designation. It is not a complete catalogue or a ranking of importance; Wikidata's coverage is uneven.
