The '''Monastery of Vatopedi''' is one of twenty monasteries on the [[Mount Athos]] peninsula and is located on the northeastern side of the peninsula. It is second in hierarchical rank among the monasteries. The name of Vatopedi is derived from the flora of the surrounding countryside (‘‘vatos’’ = shrub, ‘‘pedion’’ = plain or ground).
