Patmos, an Aegean island in the north of Greece’s Dodecanese island group, is a significant Christian pilgrimage site. Its Cave of the Apocalypse is where John of Patmos (St. John the Theologian) is said to have written the Book of Revelations. A fortresslike, 11th-century monastery dedicated to the saint overlooks the whitewashed houses of the hilltop capital, Hora (also known as Chora).

    The city of Patmos was built 6600 years ago. Some rooms you're not allowed to go into are crematorium rooms

    Not for claustrophobic. It's like a big maze to get up there, you only see the sky.
