(Local Name: Troódos - Panayía Theotókos) Just below the village of Galata is Panayia Theotokos or Archangel Michael church. Inside the door is a painting of Christ flanked by the Virgin Mary and John the Baptist and below them the donors who were, according to the inscription, members of the Zacharia family and probably Venetian nobility. There are unusually detailed portraits of the donors. On the upper walls is the New Testament cycle and on the lower walls, as usual, the individual saints.
