The town of Symi houses 13 churches and dozens of chapels, some of which date back to Symi's Byzantine eraf. One of the most frequented attractions on Symi is the monastery located at Panormitis. This monastery draws thousands of tourists to the island each year. Popular monasteries on Symi include Roukeuniotis, Megalos Sotiris, St. Michael, and the Church of the Virgin. Churches usually remain locked unless there is a name day celebration or other festivity in progress. One of the oldest churches on Symi is the paleo-Christian Church, Aghia Irini.

Though the volcano is considered to be active, it is currently not erupting, and several fumaroles can be found along the volcano's craters. The most recent volcanic eruptions occurred in 1888 (steam explosion), and a series of ash explosions in 1871 and 1873. There was seismic activity detected on the island in 1996 and 1997 that led an international team of scientists to form the Geowarn project in order to monitor volcanic unrest in the European Union. Nisyro's volcano has five craters...
