Overview of your Limassol tour:

Discover with me some of the 10 Troodos-UNESCO listed-steep pitched roof chapels! They are all entirely covered up with magnificent frescoes (wall paintings). Their dates range from the 11th through to the 16th century AD. We will start the tour with the church of Panagia(=All Saint, Virgin Mary) tou Araka, nearby Lagoudera village, built and decorated in 1192 nesting at about 1200 meters above see level. Next we'll move downhill to reach the chapel and deserted monastery of Agios Nicolaos Tis Stegis(St Nicolas of the roof) situated amid lush vegetation and dense forest. This is a double roof building of the 11th century AD containing stunning wall paintings spanning from the 11th through to the 16th century AD. In Kakopetria we may enjoy a typical local dish(fresh trout) or some charcoal-grilled souvlaki(kebab) A bit further down the Solea Valley, we'll come across the church of Panagia Tis Podithou dated in the late 15th century AD. Alternatively, we may visit the nearby church of the Archangel Michael.
