Kirazlı Monastery, Religious monastery ruins at Kapıdağ Peninsula, Turkey.
The two-story stone monastery complex sits at the base of Mount Didumus, featuring high walls and remaining sections of the original 99 rooms.
The monastery, constructed in the 19th century, functioned as a religious center for local Greek communities until its abandonment in 1922.
The monastery held the miraculous icon of Panagia Faneromeni, now displayed at the Greek Patriarchate Cathedral in Istanbul.
The site lies 8 kilometers from Erdek, accessible through a 20-minute drive on dirt roads past Kyzikos ruins and Düzler neighborhood.
Three standing walls remain among dense vegetation, with natural springs and water fountains scattered along the approaching path.
