Canyons
- Name:
The Klisouras Canyon
- Location:
Agrinio
- Description:
The Large Gorge of Kleisoura lies 20 km to the S. Its
southern entrance is occupied by the rock-hewn Monastery
of Agia Eleousa. It was in this area that Yiannis Gounaris,
the hero who saved Mesolongi during the first siege, led
a monastic life and died (hence the nickname by which
he was known, "the Monk of Kleisoura"). Above
the monastery, on the surface of a rock the visitor can
discern two figures, "the head of the Virgin Mary"
and a "lamb", sculpted by the action of tumbling
water.
