The church of Saint Nicholas right above the caldera on the edge of Oia village, Santorini island, Cyclades, Greece
On the edge of Oia village, you can find one of the 5 small Venetian castles (kastelli) of Santorini, known as the "Goulas of Saint Nicholas", by the name of the church hanging above the vertical cliff. On the right side you can see part of the older church, with an "arcosolio",a built-in tomb. Right beside this place you can find one of the most famous sunset viewpoints of Santorini. Photo taken very early in the morning. In the background, the other side of the caldera on Thirassia island
