This museum - located in the old part of Nicosia - is a great way to learn about the history of Nicosia itself - going back thousands of years to more recent times. The museum has an excellent collection which is enhanced by well produced interactives and virtual tours. Best of all it is free. A must see.

founded in the 12th century, the monastery is dedicated to the Virgin Mary and contains many precious icons and relics.

We were really lucky because there are no people these times travelling around and we were not more than 5 in the church and monastery. You should read the history of this place and I can say only one thing - the icon is very “strong” when I have approached it I instantly felt tears, it is amazing. 2020 years people are praying to this holy mother. This is strong. One thing to add - to get there is pretty tough- more then 50 km on serpentine road, it is a real challenge

The church is located in the woods and the drive to the church is really scenic. It has amazing frescoes very well preserved. A book is on sale which offers full details. No audio guide. There is no artificial light inorder to preserve the frescoes. Wear comfortable shoes as the path to the church is cobblestone but access is not difficult. Can combine the visit here with lunch to one of the restaurants in the vicinity.

This 11th century Greek Christian Orthodox church is another gem in beautiful Kakopetria village of Trrodos mountains. The UNESCO protected church is really wonderful with its frescos and lies peaceful in a lovely scenery. Worth visiting not not only the church but the whole area.

We had a really nice relaxing day at that park despite the 40 degree temperature! We feed the ducks, turtles and fish in the lake, had a few drinks, ice cream, cheap prices, play a little baggamon under the shade and after a little more walk we made our way back home!!
