Stómio

Stomio lies on the Thessalian coast near the mouth of the Pineios, where the river reaches the Aegean after passing through the Vale of Tempe. Its older name, Tsagezi, comes from the Turkish words for a river mouth. The ancient town of Eurymenae stood nearby. Above the shore, the monastery of Saint Demetrius occupies a mountain slope; its origins go back to the sixth century, and it was rebuilt in the Byzantine era.
