Agios Ioannis Lambadistis Monastery

Reviewed By 118val - Shepparton, Australia

The Monastery is situated in the Troodos Mountains and is well worth the windy drive to this picturesque town. There were very few visiting so it was peaceful, the priest was knowledgeable and pleasant. Some of the fragmented wall paintings date back to the 11th and 12th century and the other frescoes from the 13th and 14th century. There are three small churches and a number of other rooms including an oil press to explore.

Saranti Village

"At 1050m height a small beautiful village, built at the roots of three mountains all joining on a small river in the center. Because of the mountains, there is zero humidity. Probably the driest place in Cyprus. Two restaurants with delicious traditional food. The village is 300m away from an UNESCO treasure, "Panayia tou Araka", an amazing and unique monastery built in 1192 with pure trails of history." -A.G-

Panagia Asinou Church

Reviewed By yiannava - Nicosia, Cyprus

The church is located in the woods and the drive to the church is really scenic. It has amazing frescoes very well preserved. A book is on sale which offers full details. No audio guide. There is no artificial light inorder to preserve the frescoes. Wear comfortable shoes as the path to the church is cobblestone but access is not difficult. Can combine the visit here with lunch to one of the restaurants in the vicinity.
