On the opposite side of the Square is the former home of the Kakoullis family, seen this portrait taken about 100 years ago.
Close to the centre of Pyla Village stands this once handsome house. Originally the home of a prosperous family, the building is now crumbling and neglected.
A quiet corner in Pyla.

This is the Church of Panagia Asprovouniotissa in Pyla. It was built in 1200 and was originally part of a monastery. It has been reconstructed and renovated in more recent times. In 2005, mortar covering the walls was removed, revealing idolatry statues which had been used in construction of the building.
Αυτή είναι η εκκλησία της Παναγίας Ασπροβουνιώτισσας στην Πύλα. Χτίστηκε το 1200 και ήταν αρχικά μέρος ενός μοναστηριού. Έχει ανακατασκευαστεί και ανακαινιστεί πρόσφατα.

A traditional house in the centre of Pyla
There is not much left of this building in Pyla which is gradually crumbling away. Nothing supports the arch other than the stonemason's skills.
I don't know what this building might have originally been.

Pyla's former police station dates back to colonial times. A long time since it served that purpose but the building is still well maintained even though it is currently unused.

The Buyuk Han in Nicosia was built in 1572 as a caravanserai or inn
In the centre of the courtyard is a mosque.
More than 60 rooms on two floors are now occupied by galleries and cafes
This little chapel clings to the hillside on the outskirts of Pyla. The roadway leads up to a British Army firing range.
