This castle is very simple. Just a cubic structure with impenetrable walls and a platform for defenders on the roof. Original: ) No decorations, bas-reliefs and modeling for you. Nothing extra. The inside of the castle is also empty. But from the roof of the castle offers a wonderful view of the surroundings. And on the adjacent territory, several outbuildings, or rather, ruins, have been preserved. This castle, never destroyed since its foundation, can tell a single story. For example, a sugar factory was located next to the castle, and at one time the Templar Order was the owner of the castle, and it was also here that the sweet Cypriot Commandaria wine variety, which I liked so much, was bred. Be sure to climb the spiral staircase and count the steps for luck, and from the roof admire the proud peaks of the Troodos mountains, or touch the centuries-old stones. Perhaps this is all for what you can come here.
