    Греческий храм святого Николая в Бешташени был построен для понтийских греков, которые переселились в этот район Российской империи, чтобы избежать преследований османских властей после Русско-турецкой войны, завершившейся Адрианопольским миром. Внутри храм оформлен в стиле, похожем на греческие храмы, особенно напоминает храм константинопольского патриарха. Рекомендуется надевать бахилы внутри. Рядом с храмом находится греческое кладбище 19-20 веков и колокольня, выполненные из местной базальтовой вулканической породы.

    Charming old Greek church next to the war memorial. It's busier than the older St. George church by the river.
