Summary

Description
English: Moving inland from Korykos, for instance from the Land Castle, and then moving to the east visitors will come across many graves, be they rock graves or free standing sarcophagi, and churches. Some of the country can only be reached by foot, sometimes walking along sheep trails, and as the country is hilly one may have to retrace one’s steps from time to time. But it’s most rewarding. Over many visits I have never seen other tourists, just the occasional farmer. I did not manage to identify individual churches, some contributors to Wiki Commons use names like “monastery church”, or “burial church” (whatever that may be) but I do not know on what grounds. So no further description, though some points can be identified when I used gps. Here we are above a small group of rock graves across the road from the Land Castle, in the distance we see that at the Island Castle to the right.
