Monastery of the Holy Cross of Anogyra

Highlight • Religious Site

Anogyra’s Holy Cross Monastery dates back to the Byzantine era and is a really intricate complex, with several outbuildings said to have once been used as living quarters for the monks. Also be sure to have a good look at its barrel-vaulted church with a single nave and dome. Adorned with Palaiologan style paintings on its walls, they may have faded over the time, but still deserve attention and remain great examples of Palaiologan painting on the island.

The present-day church was built in the 15th century over the foundations of an early Christian basilica. Legend has it that that a nearby underground tunnel was once used by the monks to hide their treasures. Every August the place lures crowds from near and far with a religious festival that takes place in the church yard on the first of the month.

Kouris Dam

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

Curvy, undulating road with little traffic, along the entire length of the Kouris Dam. Beautiful views. But be careful, there are many blind bends. That's when a car will come towards you.
