Additional Information

Constructed atop the remnants of Citium, Larnaca is a city steeped in antiquity. It emanates a unique tranquil aura, with its coastal walkway, Finikoudes, one of its standout attractions. Take in the breathtaking Agios Lazaros stone church, which houses the burial site of Saint Lazarus and stands as an impressive testament to Byzantine architecture in Larnaca. Boasting a history that spans 10,000 years, this is the island’s longest continually populated area. While the city reverberates with cultural and architectural wealth, it concurrently thrives as a contemporary European city, offering all the modern luxuries that Cyprus has to offer. Stroll through the lanes of the Old Turkish Quarter and marvel at the charming conventional buildings and the whitewashed cottages, handsomely adorned with vibrantly coloured window frames.
