Saint John the Hermit and the 98 Holy Fathers settled at Selino province, setting the basis for an exceptional ascetic tradition. Today, the wider area of Selino and Kissamos forms an extended Byzantine Park with several frescoed temples.
The church of the Holy Apostles (Agii Apostoli) is located between Koufalotos and Kandanos in the province Selino. It belongs to the usual type of single-aisled, vaulted temples.
The church of Panagia Myrtidiotissa is located within the boundaries of the Plemeniana neighborhood in Kandanos. A short path leads to the church that starts from a small bridge next to the main road to Paleochora.
