KYRIANNA (Village) ARKADI
In the centre of the village of Kirianna is the Byzantine church of
the Panagia with cruciform architecture, a very large narthex in front on the
same axis as the main aisle of the church, and has another extension on the side.
The church has a large dome supported at the intersection of the aisles forming
the cross. In front of the church there is a bell tower with three arches, unique
in its beauty and detailed craftsmanship. In the church there is a piece of marble
decorated with reliefs showing the life of Christ and the Saints.
