Kykkos Monastery
-
This 900-year-old shrine guards a legendary, miracle-working icon of the Virgin Mary. Given to the monastery’s founder, the hermit Isaiah, by the Emperor Alexios Comnenos, it has been hidden from profane eyes for centuries and remains so to this day. Kykkos is one of the great centres of the Christian Orthodox faith and continues to attract pilgrims from all over the world.
