The Larnaca District
Cyprus boasts over 300 days of sunshine a year with mild winters, making it an excellent all year round holiday destination. It is an island of beauty and a country of contrasts. Cool, pine-clad mountains are a complete scene-change after golden sun-kissed beaches. From skiing in the Troodos Mountains in the winter, cruises to Egypt and the Holy Land, a wide range of water sports, golfing days in the beautiful sunshine, Cyprus appeals to all generations. In Cyprus all distances are easily manageable, mostly on modern roads and highways - with a secondary route or two for the more adventurous.
Eating out in Cyprus is not only extremely cheap but also it's virtually impossible to eat badly. A lot of the locals and tourists too, don't bother cooking at home they just eat out. You can get full English breakfasts for around €3.00 and the famous 'Cyprus Meze', is around €15.00.
Larnaca , which is the 3rd largest town in Cyprus is a perfect location to experience the magic of Cyprus. Larnaca has a wide variety of shops including many high street names such as Marks and Spencer, Next, Top Shop, as well as beautiful local stores. In Larnaca itself there is the 9th Century Byzantine Church of St Lazarus, Hala Sultan Tekesi - a picturesque ancient mosque on the shores of the vast Larnaca Salt Lake. Aphrodite the greek goddess of sex, love and beauty also made her home on Cyprus, and travellers throughout antiquity came here just to pay her tribute.
Toward the centre of the city, is one of Larnaca’s and the island’s most cherished sites, the church of St. Lazarus one of the most important places of Muslem pilgramage after Mecca, with the tomb of St Lazarus, the Fort and local museum. After his resurrection from the dead by Jesus, Lazarus elected to live out his “second” life as Bishop of Cyprus. He is reputedly buried in a crypt under the main altar and a further 20 mins drive takes you to Choirokoitia with an 8000 year old stone age village-a World Heritage site. For nature lovers near Larnaka International Airport there is the Larnaca Salt Lake. It fills with water during the winter and is visited by flocks of flamingoes who stay here from November till the end of March. It dries up in the summer though, leaving much salt on its surface. While in Larnaca why not take a trip to the Camel Park at Mozatos Where you can feed or ride the camels.
A visit to Palm Tree marina is a must when visiting Larnaca with its many Restaurants, bars, night clubs, water sports are available of the blue flag award winning beaches, para gliding, wind surfing, banana boat, flying fish, boat hire are all available, or why not try a trip on one of the many luxury cruisers around Larnaca Bay. On the outskirts there is a 1600 metre Go-kart tract. The Sunday market on the Dhekalia Road is an excellent way to spend the morning browsing the local products and getting a bargain or two to take back with you. Every summer Larnaca hosts a festival of music. Outdoor concerts take place in the courtyard of the medieval fort
