This site has been chosen by the Ministry of Tourism to be shown in a virtual tour as it is considered by many ones of the most important monasteries that were established during the early history of Christianity. This special site was founded by Saint Bishoy in the 4th Century AD. There you will find the main church that has a long rectangular space and it consists of three wings. On the south-western corner of the monastery, you will find the VIRGIN Mary Church and the most spiritual thing is that there is a tripartite structure that has a tempora painting depicting some Biblical scenes of Jesus Christ, Virgin Mary, the Apostles, and the Four Gospels. You will be able to check all of this using the virtual tour offered for free online.
