Description:
Holy Church of Hagia Dynamis. A tiny Christian church packed with history on a site that may have once worshipped Hercules. In the 16th century. This is one of just 24 early Christian churches dating from Ottoman rule. Ironically, it was nearly demolished during the construction of the Education and Religious Affairs Ministry but has survived to enhance the entrance of a new 5-star hotel. Athens, Greece.
