The 9th-century Byzantine Church of Agia Paraskevi is a Greek orthodox basilica in the village of Geroskipou. Its unique architectural features offer great photo ops inside and out. The barrel-vaulted basilica has 5 domes – best viewed from the Agia Paraskevi square (which has a small amphitheatre).
You’ll find 3 aisles and gorgeous interiors adorned with brilliant frescoes that date back to over a millennium. Also, check out the frescoes of the basilica’s dome. Consider yourself lucky if your visit coincides with a wedding, celebrated beautifully both at the church and often in the square.
