small church inside a cave near Kato Deftera
Why go
The church of Our Lady of the Golden Cave is built inside a cave, a form that is very rare in Cyprus. It is believed to date from the early Christian period. The painted walls have suffered badly and the frescoes can no longer be seen. A large religious festival is held here on 15 August, the Dormition of the Virgin Mary.
Good for: those interested in old churches and cave sanctuaries
⚠️ Safety
Wear sturdy shoes: the way into the cave may be uneven.
