The church of Panagia is located at the center of the Municipality of Paralimni. The original church, small in size but impressive and devoted, belongs to the 13th century. The inhabitants best know it with the name "Saint Anna", which was given, perhaps, when it was extended to its present form. Today it is an ecclesiastical gallery/museum. You should definitely visit it. Next to the church you will find two other churches devoted to St. George (protector of the town) from later centuries!

Sightseeing

Paralimni area has ancient and modern-day churches which undoubtedly are sightseeing to remember, as wells as the stunning views that their locations offer!!!
If you manage to find the road leading up to the top of the hill of Cavo Greco national park, you will probably see one of the most stunning views of the Mediterranean sea! The Cypriot government has placed a monument dedicated to peace which has been erected by our national sculptor (Philipos Yiapanis). In particular, the monument has the shape of multiple pigeons reminding us that Cyprus is under Turkish military occupation and that she still seeks and fights for her freedom....
