Pinsteps. Agia Solomoni Catacombs
Places to visit in in Пафос Languages: ru, he, en

It was during the reign of the Greek king Antiochus in Jerusalem. He brutally planted the Greek culture, abused the temple in Jerusalem and demanded the worship of pagan gods from the Jews. The seven disciples of Elazar — all the children of Solomei (Solomonia) were martyred before the eyes of their mother, but did not deny the Jewish god. Solomonia herself died of grief. After these tragic events, the Jews, led by Judas Maccabee, raised a revolt against the Greeks and overthrew the hated regime, with the result that the Jewish calendar is the holiday of Hanukkah.

Paphos Historic places and a short shopping. My trip of Nov 26, 2018

A spontaneous walk through the city told the legends of ancient churches and the history of the Jewish mother, who became the patron saint of the ancient Roman catacombs. Also, the city’s biggest mole was beautifully decorated for Christmas, there was a very beautiful ceramic workshop and the revelation that the most delicious meat dish on the island is connected with theft. It was wonderful adventure! Translated with Google Translate
