Church of Profitis Elias * - a photo on Flickriver

            This Greek Orthodox Church is built on a steep cliff with views over the town of Protaras in Cyprus and the Mediterranean Sea. Access is via 156 steps and it seemed to be a harder ascent than the last time I went there over 20 years ago!

The site originally contained a small Byzantine chapel but this was demolished when the present church was constructed in 1984. Inside there are colourful religious wall paintings and the location is very peaceful and well worth the climb up!
