Review:

Perched at a height of 1,318 meters in the Troodos Mountains, the Kykkos Monastery is one of the most opulent and easily recognizable monasteries in Cyprus. Although it was first established in the 11th century, most of its buildings are quite new because the originals burned down. The monastery is dedicated to the Virgin Mary, and it is known for being home to one of three icons attributed to Luke the Evangelist. There is also a museum on the grounds, and while entrance to the monastery is free of charge, anyone wishing to visit the museum will have to pay a small fee.
