    Since the church is open all day, start at the 1579 stone façade, then head straight to the original 16th century iconostasis inside. After the side chapel, you can quickly walk past the Dutch style gatehouse that sits right next to the church. If time allows, the nearby St. Joseph’s Church on the same street is another quick 17th century stop. A quick coffee at Hotel Aida, just a kilometre away, will let you rest before you keep driving.
