RELIGIOUS TOURISM
|
Via the globalization, due to which the intergovernmental boundaries have been abolished for citizens to transfer freely all over the world, the annihilation in time and in distance, the consequence of the immense rise in technology, church is expected to adapt itself to the circumstances and to show to its members and to everyone who is interested the unchangeable message and the values which may be regarded as preterit and old fashioned to many people. However, according to church these have been proved evidently beneficial to the soul through centuries. Orthodoxy and the values that it has to present have survived in monasteries, parishes and chapels! Religious tourism consists the best access to this spiritual and historical wealth (which has Greek tradition in it), the counteractive to today’s depreciation and degradation (as it consists as well the living proof that authentic societies never decay). Through this situation the visitor / believer feels an exaltation which is anticipated due to its reference to God. So we invite you to the beautiful region of Magnesia, the Metropolis of Dimitriada and generally in Thessaly to admire the treasures of our spiritual tradition. |
