St. Nikolas Fountoukli Monastery is a 15th-century church that stands out among the dozen Byzantine churches scattered around the countryside and mountains of Rhodes. To reach this charming and picturesque spot, one has to drive along the winding road that passes through the third-highest peak in Rhodes, the Mt Profitis Ilias. Suddenly, a vibrant plot of greenery with noble centuries-old olive trees, figs, and plane trees appear, along with a small stone church. The scenery with the peak of Mt. Prophet Ilias right behind the mysterious church is slightly surreal, making it a beautiful spot.
