It is hard to imagine the Serbian country and nation without the Hilandar monastery. This monastery is located on the Greek peninsula of Halkidiki on Mount Athos and it is 2,5 kilometers away from the coast. Saint Sava and his father had renewed the old orthodox monastery at the end of 12th century, and, since then, Hilandar has been the center of Serbian religious life and probably its first university. The word Hilandar is derived from Byzantine word for transport ship – ‘chalendion’, while the skipper on that kind of boat was called – helandaris.
