Paraportiani Church

Agion Anargiron

This famous whitewashed church was begun in 1475 but wasn’t actually finished until the 17th century. Although there are five churches built together, only the ground floor is open to tourists from sun up to sun down. “Our Lady of the Side Gate” is a working sacred space so avoid entering to take pictures when services are being held.
