圣纳帕修道院印象
-
I like to light a candle for my mum and dad when I get chance and the monestry seemed the perfect place very special
-
incredible...a place of peace and silence in the middle of pulsing nightlife and funparks...we loved the most the cave-like church andd the fountain in the front of it. also the tree in front of the main entrance is impressive.

It was lovely to look round and there were some priests singing whilst we were there which was rather nice. Beautifully kept and no litter

Monastery lies on the hill right in the center of Ayia Napa town. It was built in 1400 AD as a fortified castle and is encsircled by high walls. Name Napa means woody valley, and name of monastery and a village coming from the "Icon of Virgin Mary of Napes", which means "the Saint of the woods". There were a Roman chapel and a women's Monastery and a Roman chapel (the right aisle of the church) built. In front of entrance, next to reservoir, stands the enormous sycamore tree Ficus Sykamorus. According to a legend, it is said to have been planted by the Venetian woman. The Ayia Napas Aqueduct delivered water to the Monastery from mountains nearby.On the northern side of the Monastery´s courtyard, there is a fountain in a shape of the head of a wild boar. Above that, the two-floor building is standing, in which there were a living quarters of a high official once in time.Up on the hill, on the west side of the church, there is a small, ancient church, where according to tradition, the Virgin Mary lay down for a while to rest.Nearby the monastery, the new church is built in 1990, also dedicated to the Virgin Mary, the church has a number of bright well-done mosaics indoors and even outdoors, around the church´s square.(see pictures attached).In a time of our visit the Monastery was a stage for Medieval week celebrations, whence medieval decorations on the grounds.

Ruins to see, can go in, shoulders must be covered ladies, no guide or entrance fee, if UK would be both, very old, look up history before you go or go with walking guide from hotel. next to modern church which is quite impressive

This place has history dripping off of the walls and is beautiful to boot!A perfect place to have your wedding photo taken and to sit and contemplate.it has an ancient running stream through it and a tiny chapel that is nearly always open to go inside and look about. lovely

It is quite amazing that this little area of peace and tranquility resides in the centre of Ayia Napa, cheek by jowl with busy shops, bars and restaurants. The monastery was built in 1500 after an icon of the Virgin Mary was found in a cave there. It has been extended and added to over the centuries but the cave area is now a small church/ chapel and there is a well and gardens surrounded by walls and rooms one of which houses a small shop. It is a very restful place and a delight to visit. Just nearby is the church of Panagia, another name for Mary. With its typical Greek painted walls and ceilings detailing the saints and the collection of icons it seems overwhelming to the eye. Both buildings are a joy to visit.
-
A monastery that started as a cave church and was expanded through the centuries. Well worth a visit.
-
The monastery is set in its own grounds and seems so out of character with its surroundings. Its a beautiful building with the alter set below ground level and tenderly maintained. Its also free to enter (donations accepted) and well worth a visit if in the area.
