Canyons
- Name: The Klisouras Canyon
- Location: Agrinio
- Description:
The Large Gorge of Kleisoura lies 20
km to the S. Its southern entrance is
occupied by the rock-hewn Monastery
of Agia Eleousa. It was in this area
that Yiannis Gounaris, the hero who
saved Mesolongi during the first siege,
led a monastic life and died (hence
the nickname by which he was known,
"the Monk of Kleisoura"). Above the
monastery, on the surface of a rock
the visitor can discern two figures,
"the head of the Virgin Mary" and a
"lamb", sculpted by the action of tumbling
water.
