Aerial cableway

[edit]

The remains of an aerial cableway can be seen on the northern hills; remains of a building and foundations for the cable gantries can be found. This cableway was used to transport asbestos from the open cast mine at Amiantos, Troods to a loading point in Limassol. A gantry foundation can also be found on the southern hills.

Churches

[edit]

There are two Greek Orthodox churches in the village, Agia Anna and Agios Nikolaos.
