Moutallos Shrine Chapel
Published 5th of September, 2021
Rocky Outcrop
The chapel itself is actually very small. We shall delve inside shortly, but first, lets take a look amongst the rocks next to it. Note the picture of St George embedded in the rock.
Through The Rocks
There is a path that runs through the rocks. In the past this area was full of old builders' materials and what-have-you. Now look at it!
Wall Painting
I wonder what church this is a painting of? It certainly doesn't look familiar to me.
Work In Progress?
Looking here, they would appear to be still working on this area. What do you think it will become?
Grotto
At the end of the path through the rocks is this tiny grotto. I imagine over the years this will become full of icons and votive offerings.

The Enclosure of Agios Neophytos
The other day we set off to find the Enclosure of Agios Neophytos. We had seen a video of it and it looked interesting. A remote monastery in a cliff? That ticks all the right boxes. However, there wasn't much to see when we found the enclosure. We had neglected to pick the key up, and our view through the gate didn't reveal much. Fortunately, the journey to and from the place was so much fun that yet again I find myself having to cherry pick the best pictures rather than pad an article out. So enjoy our journey, and with the map at the end to guide you, why not plan your own route...?
Check out the Eco Art Show at the Shrine Caves!
We visited the Ayios Georgios Shrine Caves quite a while ago, but returned recently to make a virtual tour. We were pleasently surprised when we did so to find that the area now hosted an outdoor Eco Art Exhibition. This place is really worth checking out, and makes a lovely walk.Related Pages

eBookCyprus Road Trip 01: the Kathikas - Panagia Loop
Let me take you on a journey around the region of Paphos, Cyprus. Starting at Paphos itself, we travel to Akoursos, then Kathikas, Kritou Terra and Simou. We continue past Lasa and Kannaviou, before taking in the delights of Panagia. Getting a bit more adventurous, we visit the abandoned villages of Statos and Agios Fotios, before passing through Choulou, Letymbou and Polemi, and rejoining the main Paphos - Polis road.
The route is suitable for all types of vehicle, and requires no off-roading. The guide contains about 130 photographs including shots of all the road signs you need to pay attention to, as well as some of the highlights you may experience along the way.
There are also several maps which will help you keep your bearings.
You can do this journey in a day, or you can break it up into chunks. You can also do it in reverse, to get some completely different views. It is entirely up to you.
