Highlights
-
Omodos - Picturesque stone-built Omodos village
The rather busy Omodos village is found in a prime wine producing area of Cyprus. The village offers an excellent example of Cyprus rural architecture and a collection of attractions (eg traditional man powered grape press). At its center one finds the historic monastery of the Holly Cross (dating back to the second century AD. According to tradition it was visited by St Helen in the third century AD; she left a piece of the rope used in Christ’s Crucifixion there - sadly the monastery does not operate any more).
For us Omodos is a meeting and a resting place (at it has good public restrooms and various tourist amenities). It takes upto thirty mintues by car to move between Platy Valley and Omodos village.
