    A beautiful bright sparkling church with well maintained surrounding grounds. A stream is rushing by via a stone built cool your feet station with steps small bridges and seats. A great little stop over for a few pics, a quick prayer and to realise how much history that place actually hides.

    A historic church named after the first European Christian, Lydia, baptized by Apostle Paul. The building has an eye-catching exterior architecture. The interior offers mosaics of the 12 Apostles and an ancient map of the eastern Mediterranean. Colorful frescos cover the walls and the dome. At the entrance to the grounds you find a cafeteria.
