Byzantine church of Agii Pantes

FRES (Village) FRES
  In the village of Agii Pandes there is the unusual Byzantine church of Agii Pandes. The church has cruciform architecture which supports a large dome at the intersection of the aisles. However, the church's shape is quite uncommon. Externally it is in the shape of a rectangle like many other churches. Seen from the front however, it resembles a three-aisled church in which the central aisle is much shorter than the other two.
