Panagia of Life - Givingspring (Stazousa)

Panagia the Stazousa (Zoodochos Pigi) is a hidden architectural diamond of the Cypriot countryside, placed in the lush green valley of Pyrga in Larnaca. This stone-built medieval monastery of the 14th century marries Western Gothic art with Eastern Orthodox spirituality. Its name is inextricably connected with the holy spring (agiasma) that gushes forth in the area, offering pilgrims an earthly haven of serenity and deep contemplation away from the noise of the town.
