Walk the land of Saint Paisios: Farasa Pilgrimage Tour
Explore the childhood village of this 20th-century saint, trace his early journey, and experience a moment of reflection surrounded by Cappadocia’s timeless beauty.
Join us on a touching journey to the roots of Saint Paisios, the beloved contemporary Saint of Orthodoxy. This day tour takes you to Farasa, the historical village in Cappadocia where Saint Paisios was born and baptized in 1924, shortly before the population exchange between Greece and Turkey.
Set in a landscape of exceptional natural beauty and deep spiritual tradition, we will visit the house where he was born, the ruins of the Church of Saint Bartholomew, and learn stories of the local Greek community and their faith.
Our tour also introduces you to the legacy of Elder Arsenios the Cappadocian, the spiritual father of Saint Paisios, as well as the broader history of the Greek presence in Cappadocia.
