    Visiting St. Anthony's Monastery in Arizona truly feels like being transported to Greece. From the…read morebreathtaking churches and beautiful icons to the meticulously landscaped acres of peaceful grounds, every part of the monastery is absolutely stunning and serene. One of the most surreal and meaningful experiences was visiting the tomb of Agios Ephraim and having the opportunity to pray next to him. It was incredibly moving and something I'll never forget. Be sure to plan ahead for the dress code. Men must wear long pants, long-sleeve shirts, and fully covered feet. Women should wear a head scarf covering their hair, long skirts or dresses, long sleeves, and nothing too tight or form-fitting. If you don't have the appropriate clothing, the monastery has garments available to borrow, which is very helpful. The grounds are gorgeous, and there are so many special touches throughout the property. Be sure to stop for a refreshing Greek vegan freddo cappuccino and their fresh ginger lemonade! The monastery store also has beautiful icons, along with freshly picked and dried fruits and nuts from the trees grown right on the property. A truly peaceful, beautiful, and unforgettable experience. If you're in Arizona, this is absolutely worth visiting.

    I had no idea this place existed until my Orthodox friend mentioned about it. Since I had an…read moreamazing experience visiting several Orthodox monasteries overseas, I was interested in visiting one in the U.S. Visitor hours are from 10:30am to 2:30pm everyday. Dress code is strictly enforced. If you do not have one, they will ask you wear one of their clothes. I heard monks speak English, that's when I remember I was in the United States, not overseas somewhere. That's how this place made me feel, I felt like I was visiting a foreign country. It's beautiful inside and outside. I recommend visiting in a cooler month. I was pretty hot walking outside in a long dress and scarf around my hair. Feeling I get once I stepped inside was something I cannot describe. I went with a group of friends but I think I want to go alone next time to fully feel what this place has to offer.
