    From the sights worth visiting visit the monastery Philosopher. This is one of the most important monasteries in Greece. It consists of two complexes. The Old and the New Monastery. The Old Philosopher monastery founded in 967. The monument is wedged on a tall vertical rock and the West Bank of Gortyn Lucius.

    If you like nature trips will enjoy the journey along the river Lousios. It is a landscape of infinite beauty, rich history, which impresses every passer. You'll also see the Museum of Water Power source of St. John Lousios Gorge.

    Do not miss the gunpowder mills that still stand today and in the region is also worth visiting the famous library of Dimitsana, books which were read by patriarchs and metropolitans, the secret school of single philosopher initially and School Dimitsanas later. Unfortunately, today there are preserved many books of that period. Nevertheless there are still rare editions and a fairly rich biographical material. Similarly, the library operates as a museum, and houses a small collection of archaeological finds from excavations in the surrounding area and a folklore collection with textiles and handicrafts.
