The Pitsylia area lies on the eastern slopes of the Troodos mountain range. Picturesque villages cling to the mountainside amid vineyards, orchards of almond and hazelnut trees and an astonishing array of wild flowers. The church of Metamorphosis tou Sotiros, the Transfiguration of the Saviour, is an early 16th Century chapel on the hill, overlooking the old village. Its interior is painted with one of the most accomplished series of murals of the post-Byzantine period in Cyprus. The church of Panagia Chrysopantanassa built in the 16th Century contains wall paintings.
