But then I carried on to the nearby Church of the Panayia (also transliterated as Panagia), an 11th-century Byzantine cruciform church dedicated to the Virgin Mary.
Even this short stretch of road is not without a shrine for an accident victim |
Greens and light browns predominate, but can be beautiful |
Front view of the church |
Side view - I find it sobering to think this was built about the time of the Norman Conquest |
This may be a filled-in well, or was perhaps used for immersive baptisms |
