Protaras Famagusta CY

See route

The nature trail of Profitis Elias to Konnos and the loose surface road of Agioi Saranta can both take you to the little, humble chapel of Agios Ioannis. The chapel was built in the beginning of the 20th century using mud, mud bricks and stones and it is nestled in a valley. The original chapel was actually a small rectangular room. The building deteriorated over the years and a new chapel was built in its place. Simple, as the first one, a place of pilgrimage dedicated to St. John the Hermit.
