Itinerary

  • Pano Lefkara

    We'll start the day by driving to Pano Lefkara. The village is located 700 metre above the sea level on the foothill of Troodos mountains. It is famous with its silver wear and the lace work which is called'Lefkaridi'. Leonordo da Vinci ordered an altar cloth to the Cathedral of Milan in 1481 from this village and they have the design named after him. Many houses in the village have been restored recently. The narrow roads with beautiful balconies and door frames are just beautiful to walk around. You will see local shops and each of them selling the lace work or the silverwear while you inspire in the beautiful village.

  • Paphos Gate

    We drive to Nicosia. Our first stop in the capital will be the Paphıs Gate in the walled city. This gate is one of the three gates which was built during the Lusignan period.

    The pillar was brought to Nicosia from Salamis Ruins of Famagusta during the Venetian Period. There was the symbol of the Venetians which was the St. mark Lion on top of the pillar. When Ottomans came they took it out from its place and transfer it into the garden of a Mosque. During the British period they brought it back to its original place and replaced a globe on top of the pillar. Which is the symbol of the British.'The sun never sets on British Empire'.

    It was constructed by the Lusignan King Henry I in 1209 and it took 150 years to complete the building.Lusignan princes were crowned as Kings of Cyprus in this Cathedral of St. Sophia.

A lovely quaint tour around town

Published on Aug, 2024

The perfect day tour around the town. I highly recommend this private tour - you don’t feel rushed and get to soak up the charm of this old town. The traditional Cypriot coffee was the best I had since leaving home (Sydney).
