Churches and Bells in Santorini

The churches in Santorini are pretty unique. The trademark of the churches is the striking blue domes and the bells just next to it. I am sure some of you might have seen this church on TV, websites or even postcards.

These blue domes or churches can be found in Perissa, Fira, Pyrgos, Firostefani, Imerovigli and Oia. In fact, you can almost find it everywhere in Santorini. However, you are required to be adventurous enough to explore every single path. This is because these churches are located in the residential area. Well, you'll get what I mean when you get there :)

Some domes are not well maintained therefore the colours are a bit faded.

Bells in Santorini

This is the bells of a church. I doubt that you would find these anywhere else.

It is never easy to get to these places to capture such shots as you need to really explore the place.

That's all for today. It's pretty late now I should get some sleep.

Before that, I would wanna thank those who have dropped me some wonderful comments. I hope you guys would continue to leave some feedbacks on the photos. Thank you.

Also, I am sorry for those whom I have caused them changed their dream holiday into Santorini. hehe. I am serious Santorini is really amazing. Anyway, that's all for now.
