Churches of Unesco
In the mountains of Troodos, in the central part of the island, some of the most important monuments in the history of Byzantine painting are located. They are painted churches preserved to our days, fine specimens of the various trends of Byzantine and post-Byzantine monumental painting from the 11th to the 19th century. Ten of these churches have so far been included in the list of World Culrural Heritage of UNESCO. All of them are located in the mountain region of Troodos.
