Nestled in the picturesque Marathasa Valley, Kykkos Monastery is not only the wealthiest and most lavish on the island, but also a significant cultural and religious site. Perched at an altitude of 1,318 metres, this historical gem is a must-visit for anyone keen to understand modern Cyprus. The monastery's origins can be traced back to the end of the 11th century when it was founded by Byzantine Emperor Alexios I Komnenos. Although the original structure has not survived the various fires that have swept through the region, today's buildings are beautifully maintained and filled with intricate murals and religious treasures. One of the monastery's most prized possessions is an icon of Panagia (the Virgin Mary) attributed to Apostle Luke. This silver gilt-covered icon is housed in a stunning tortoiseshell and mother-of-pearl shrine, which stands in front of the iconostasis. When visiting Kykkos Monastery, be sure to explore the grounds, including the museum that showcases antiquities, documents, vessels, vestments, ornaments, icons, frescoes, and woodcarvings. You'll also find that the monastery produces Zivania spirit and other alcoholic drinks, and hosts religious fairs on September 8th (Birth of the Virgin) and August 15th (Dormition of the Virgin). As a place of worship, observance, and commercial enterprise, Kykkos Monastery offers a unique insight into the lives of Greek Cypriots and their religion. Don't miss the chance to experience this captivating site during your time in Cyprus.
