ninakomnina:#Panagia Phorviotissa belongs to the select group of “Painted #Churches” protected as #UNESCO #WorldHeritage Sites, although that group falls woefully short of covering the whole set of #Byzantine-Cypriot churches.Still in its original form after so many years, the structure dates to the Byzantine period of the 12th century, and the entirety of the inside of the #church is painted with #frescoes in the Byzantine style, dating from the beginning of 12th century.https://www.instagram.com/p/B0xpaltJwF2/?igshid=qh8ldcmowmc4 -- source link
