The settlement of Monastiraki is located at the 10th km of the highway from Ierapetra to Pacheia Ammos and at a detour of 2 km to the right near the ravine of Ha, at an altitude of 180 m., On the outskirts of Thripti. Its name is probably due to a small monastery that existed there from the first Christian times. This old monastery, during the Turkish occupation, was turned into a mosque.
