Our
tour will take you to see the only divided capital in the world and
our first stop will be at the Cyprus handicraft centre where you can
browse and see the many locally produced products and souvenirs.
We’ll visit the green line, the line that divides the island and the
capital in two parts. Our tour will cover the Venetian Walls of the 16th
century by the Famagusta Gate,
 the Monument of Liberty and the
Archbishopric with the Statue of Makarios. We’ll
visit the Cathedral of St. John, a painted Church of the 17th
century and the Byzantine Icon Museum with some of the most
beautiful icons (8th - 19th century). Free
time is given for lunch and shopping in the restored part of the Old
Town (Laiki Yitonia). In the afternoon we’ll take you to the
picturesque village of Lefkara well known for its embroideries,
laces and silverware. |
