    • Saint Simeon Citadel:
    It’s a great place to visit
    The Saint Simeon was a Byzantine Church
    And the center of the church there’s a big great stone where wise Simeon decided to pass his life upon it…meditating and praying and philosophizing!!!
    The view , nature , stones , has special energy… That will never leave you unimpressed.
