Falanthi
| Φαλάνθη
 Falanthi
with two settlements, Chomatero and the small Mystraki is a tractive
power of 352 inhabitants. Emigrants from Arcadia, following the
emancipation from the Turkish yoke, settled here and with ardor and
diligence they fecundated the geophysical opulence and prospered
through the cultivation of raisin and greenhouses.
In Mystraki, traditional stone-built settlements muse in
the panoramic view and recount the glory and the legends of
the past. And by the small torrent of Falanthi, the small church of
Aghia Pelagia by its shady planes and water sources narrates its
history while in Chomatero, Nature, History and Religion embodied
within the monastic ravine the Byzantine Monastery of Ag. Theodori,
which flourished in the past and still shines.
