Panagia tis Angeloktistis, meaning 'Our Lady of the Angels,' is a Byzantine church in the village of Kiti, just southwest of Larnaca. Its main draw is a stunning 6th-century apse mosaic of the Virgin Mary and Child, flanked by archangels, which survived the Iconoclastic period. Visitors can admire this early Christian masterpiece, the church's medieval frescoes, and a tranquil courtyard. The site offers a glimpse into Cyprus's rich religious and artistic heritage.
