Description

The journey takes you through the scenic Troodos mountains, known for their lush forests and fresh air. At the mountain’s base lies Omodos village, a charming spot with cobbled streets and vineyards. Here, we’ll visit the Timios Stavros Monastery, famous for holding a piece of the Holy Cross and the Holy Rope. Next, we drive through the quaint villages of Pedoulas and Prodromos to reach Kykkos Monastery, one of Cyprus’s wealthiest monasteries founded in the 11th century. It houses the revered icon of the Virgin Mary, said to be painted by St. Luke. The monastery’s terrace offers breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside.
