A church of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross in Bareti. The name of the feast sounds here in Greek: Bareti belongs to the belt of Greek villages on the Tsalka upland, and Greek usage shows in the very names of the churches. The church also has a second, short local name.
Bareti leads the area in the number of shrines, holding eight. The main group is gathered within three hundred metres, while this church stands apart, about a kilometre and a half west of the rest.
Allow at least an hour for the village: first the compact group, then the drive over here. The rules are those of any working church: covered shoulders and knees, quiet, and a headscarf is useful for women.
