The monastery of Perivoli is situated in a by-passing of
the country road Kalloni-Antissa, just before the village of Antissa on the
banks of the Voulgaris river. It is a women convent dedicated to the
Presentation of the Virgin and it was devastated in recent years. In the past
(at least from the 16th up to the end of the 18th century), it constituted part
of the men's monastery of Taxiarches Kreokopou, which is located at
approximately an hour's distance from Perivoli, on the top of Mt Chalakas.
The katholikon (main church) of the monastery is built
according to the type of a two-aisled wooden roof basilica; it is of small
dimensions with remarkable frescoes that date in the 16th century.
