351 CY - Painted Churches in the Troodos Region (1985)

Brief Description

"This region is characterized by one of the largest groups of churches and monasteries of the former Byzantine Empire. The complex of 10 monuments included on the World Heritage List, all richly decorated with murals, provides an overview of Byzantine and post-Byzantine painting in Cyprus. They range from small churches whose rural architectural style is in stark contrast to their highly refined decoration, to monasteries such as that of St John Lampadistis."

特罗多斯地区的彩绘教堂

"这个地区是拜占庭帝国最大的教堂和修道院群落之一。列入《世界遗产名录》10个建筑全都饰有大量的壁画，全面展示了塞浦路斯的拜占 庭式和后拜占庭式绘画。建筑物的类型从小教堂到圣约翰拉姆帕迪斯提斯这样的修道院，应有尽有。小教堂的田园建筑风格与其精美装饰形成了鲜明对比。"
