The highest peak in the Troodos range is Mount Olympus at 1,952 metres. There are nine churches and one monastery, the Kykkos monastery, in Troodos that are included in the official UNESCO list of cultural treasures of the World's heritage. The nine Byzantine churches are: Stavros tou Ayiasmati, Panayia tou Araka, Timiou Stavrou at Pelendri, Ayios Nikolaos tis Stegis, Panayia Podithou, Assinou, Ayios loannis Lampadistis, Panayia tou Moutoula, and Archangel Michael at Pedhoulas. The area has been known since ancient times for its copper mines, and in the Byzantine period it became a great centre of Byzantine art. |
