Guide

Omodos is the easiest taste of mountain village life from Limassol or Paphos. Narrow stone lanes lead to a wide cobbled square and the Monastery of the Holy Cross at its centre.

This is wine country: the village belongs to the Krasochoria, the wine villages, and you can still see an old stone wine press. Shops sell local wine, lace and the village's ring-shaped bread.

The catch. Busy with coach tours at midday and many shops sell the same souvenirs. You need a car.

Local tip. Come late in the afternoon when the coaches have left, and stay for dinner.

Timios Stavros Monastery

The Monastery of the Holy Cross stands on the village square: a stone church with a bell tower, and two-storey wings with arcades around the courtyard.
