The monastery of the Apostle Barnabas is located near the ghost town – Famagusta. This is one of the most popular places in Cyprus for Christian pilgrimage. Now the monastery of St. Barnabas is a religious site, which is often visited by newly arrived tourists.

There is a chapel near the main building, which was built over the relics of the Apostle Barnabas. Inside, a spring with healing water has been beautifully ennobled. The territory of the monastery of Barnabas Cyprus itself is equipped with trees, as well as a working cafe.

By paying three euros, you can go inside the building itself and see a large number of holy icons. The entire interior is ennobled with collections of icons and a large number of ancient artifacts.
