A must visit. It is a long way but well worth the time you spend in the car. Going up Troodos mountains you can stop at so many places, wine tasting, a little villages. At the top when we went was deep snow and you could ski if you wanted to. Odd one minute on the beach in Paphos and the next skiing!! The monastery is out of this world and free of charge to look around what is just an amazing sight. Will not go into any more detail as I will spoil it for your own visit

This is a fairly modern building in the Troodos Mountains. Spectacular scenery and a very windy road to get there. The monastery itself is quite small and covered everywhere in gold leaf. Avoid the tourist trap shops nearby unless you like tat and religious icons!

I went on a small mini-bus on an all inclusive trip. We stopped for breakfast and a traditional Cypriot lunch. I learnt lots about Cyprus and it's way of life. The monastery was beautiful but we were only allowed a short time there. An extra 30 minutes would have been ideal.

Lots of history and beautiful things to see. We had a brilliant tour guide who was very knowledgeable. Only disappointment was not seeing any monks.

Very Impressive, gold icons,gold chandeliers, beautiful pictures and full of treasures.Young monks were sat reading in alcoves and talking quietly.No cameras were allowed.Our guide was a local and was a mine of information.The shop was full of interesting items and not too expensive.We bought some wine made at the monastery, which was very acceptable.Do NOT go to the toilets unless you are absolutely desperate.Filthy dirty,no paper,no soap and no driers and at the top of a flight of stairs.

The premier religious site in the Troodos mountains, Kykkos Monastery rewards the visitor with an opulent display of the Orthodox church's art and treasures. The walls are extensively decorated with striking mosaics and frescos. The interior of the church is a riot of gold, brass and icons (no photography allowed). Most impressive is the museum, which is well worth the entrance fee and contains a rich collection of religious objects, vestments and treasures.

Kykkos Monastery was founded in 1100s AD, and was rebuilt many times. It lay on the height of 1140 meters, to the west in Troodos mountains. It is a male Monastery, one of the most important, known and rich on Cyprus, dedicated to Virgin Mary. It is open for visitors, but there is a dress code as it used to be, and one can not go in wearing shorts or linen.There is a Monastery museum on the grounds, where a most important icon of Virgin can be found. This Icon has powerful crafts and in not to look at, that´s why the picture itself was in 1795 covered by a silver riza and now is never uncovered. There is a lot of fine bright mosaics and frescoes in buildings all around the inner court with a well in the middle. Mosaics are recent work from 1990s and are a real nice example of decorations in a contemporary artstyle. Whole place is an important religious destination with a lot of pilgrims and worshipers .Nice area for promenade och maybe picnic nearby Monastery. Because of height it is always considerably colder here and often rainy, so it is good to have a warm sweater with you.There is also a lots of souvenir shops selling tourist-requested products nearby the entrance by the car-parking, as well as few restaurants.
