We took a walk to the top of this hill and discovered more than we ever thought! I knew there was a citadel up there, which is now an impressive looking hotel. But the Cave Church was the impromptu highlight, totally unexpected! Views, amazing.

The story behind this church is nearly as wonderful as the building itself is today, and it's amazing that it's been restored at all considering the effort it must have been to undo all the whitewashing and plastering it had when the Turks invaded! Inside the number of relics and bits of art is very impressive indeed.

A stunning church with a colourful history. It is worth visiting and taking a free tour around to look at the delicate artwork and architecture on the inside, not to mention the detail in the stained glass.
