The Theotokos prints at the Vatopedi Shrine
Mount Athos is known as the "Garden of the Virgin Mary". As the place par excellence where the face of the Most Holy Theotokos is honored, appears, acts and rests, as "the conceivable and beautiful Paradise of the Theotokos". Something that particularly characterizes the Vatopedi Monastery is the existence of many miraculous icons of our Virgin Mary, seven miraculous icons of the Lady Theotokos have remained in the Monastery. Together with the fact that the Holy Belt, the only Mother of God garment that has survived from the earthly life of the Virgin Mary, is also kept here, making the Monastery a Theotokos-covered Monastery with special Mother of God Grace.
