FROM THE EDITOR
We are delighted to welcome you to
Larnaka, our unique charming region!
Larnaka is a destination which offers all
possible amenities, but on the other hand,
it has plenty of hidden gems. And that is
why the Larnaka Chamber of Commerce
and Industry is, for the sixteenth consecutive year,
issuing the “Larnaka This Month” edition. We want to
recommend to you places and attractions worth visiting and interesting monthly events which will not
only entertain you but will also get you acquainted
with the Cypriot culture. Every piece of Larnaka offers
something special and we want to show it to our
esteemed visitors.
What I personally love about Larnaka is the fact that
it has the atmosphere of a small city and the convenience of a metropolitan area. Larnaka has qualities
that distinguish the region from other holiday resorts.
You can rarely find a place which combines historic
attractions, the commercial centre, cosmopolitan
promenades and blue-flag awarded beaches together with numerous activities, all in a single area. So,
Larnaka’s compact size is what makes the destination special together with other characteristics which
can be revealed by reading this edition.
Wishing you a memorable holiday ... and make sure
you truly experience Larnaka to its fullest!

Message from Larnaka’s Mayor
Mr. Andreas Louroutziatis
It is with a great pleasure that I welcome you all
to our beautiful city Larnaka. A city with a continuous and uninterrupted history.
Larnaka is the third largest city of the Republic of
Cyprus in terms of population. It hosts the main
international airport, a port and a nice marina
for yachts. It has clean sandy beaches with clear
blue waters and an efficient tourist infrastructure. The town is organized with everything that a large city
can offer.
The development plan of the city is extremely ambitious
and it is already turning the wider Larnaka area into a field of
investments and opportunities. The regeneration projects
will unify the city center promenade with the popular palm
tree –finikoudes pleasure and entertainment area.
Furthermore, a number of other projects in the city are
already under materialization and I urge you to find out
about them by enjoying a walk in the city.
Larnaka is worth visiting!
Message from the Larnaka
Tourism Board Chairman Mr. Dinos
Lefkaritis
On behalf of the Larnaka Tourism Board, I would
like to warmly welcome you to the lovely coastal
region of Larnaka!
Larnaka is considered to be Cyprus’s oldest
town. With a history of 10.000 years, Larnaka is
the gateway to Cyprus and a magical blend of old and new.
From its traditional architecture, authentic taverns and local
handicrafts to its cultural sites and religious monuments, old
Larnaka is an evocative glimpse into a Cyprus past.
New and modern Larnaka harmoniously intertwines with the
elements of ancient Kition and offers the cosmopolitan visitor
beautiful sandy beaches, a bustling promenade lined with
cafes and restaurants, brand-name shopping, advanced infrastructure and every conceivable amenity.
Larnaka has numerous landmarks and unique places of interest. This useful edition shall enable to you discover Larnaka’s
hidden treasures and make the most out of your stay!

LARNAKA: Historical and other places to see
The successor of the ancient city-Kingdom of Kition and
the birthplace of Zeno, the great Stoic philosopher.
Evidence of Larnaka’s glorious past are scattered all accross
the region. The most interesting places worth visiting in
and around Larnaka are the following:
Church of St. Lazarus: Of great interest is the church of St.
Lazarus. As the name suggests, it was built to enshrine the
tomb of Lazarus, who,
according to legend, was
expelled from Bethany after
his resurrection and forced
into an unseaworthy boat
which brought him to Kiti.
Here he met with the
Apostles
and
was
consecrated a bishop and
canonised. The Saint’s
remains were discovered
and removed in 890AD.
However, the sarcophagus
is held in great veneration to
this day.
Angeloktisti Church: At
Kiti, to the west of Larnaka
town, is the famous church
of PANAYIA ANGELOKTISTI
("build by Angels”). This
11th Century building
replaced an earlier one,
whilst the chapel at the
entrance is of the 14th
Century. The outstanding
feature of the church is its
splendid early Byzantine
mosaic, considered to be
the finest on the island. The
church is certainly worth
visiting for the mosaic
alone.

Phaneromeni Church: On the way to the Airport there is
the underground chapel of Ayia Phaneromeni.
mosque in her honour. The place is considered to be fourth
holiest in the Moslem world.
It is a rock cavern with the two chambers. The structure
suggests that it was a pagan tomb once, possibly dating
back to Phoenician times. The place is credited with various
magical properties: thus, those who suffer from headaches
or other diseases walk three times round it and leave a piece
of clothing or a tuft of their hair. It is visited by girls, whose
lovers are overseas, who come here to pray for their safety.
The Larnaka Salt Lake is near Larnaka International Airport. It
fills up with water during the winter and is visited by
migratory birds, mainly flamingoes that stay here from
November until the end of March.
The Larnaka Medieval Castle was erected by the Turks in
1625. This fort is now a museum and its inner courtyard is
used as a an open air garden-theatre during the summer
months, by kind permission of the Director of Antiquities.
The Larnaka District Museum houses a rich collection of
antiquities from Larnaka and its surrounding district.
The Old Aqueduct, known as “Kamares”, stands outside the
town on the way to Lemesos. It was built in Roman style in
1745 to carry water from a source about 6 miles south of
Larnaka into the town.
Larnaka Palm Trees Promenade: One of Larnaka’s most
distinctive features is the seaside promenade lined with tall
palm trees. It is a popular meeting and walking place
bordered by tavernas a sandy beach, the Medieval Castle and
the Marina.
The Pierides Marfin Laiki Bank Museum contains a unique
archaeological, medieval, post-Byzantine and Cypriot fork
art collections gathered by five consecutive generations of
the family. It also exhibits an old arsenal and a rich collection
of old chartography of Cyprus and the Eastern
Mediterranean.
Marina: The Largest Marina in Cyprus, located in
“Phinikoudes”. Walking on the Marina Pier is a social activity of
the locals.
Municipal Art Gallery & City Museum & Archives. This
Museum is now open at the five old customs stores of NeoGothic architecture which were handed to the Larnaka
Municipality by the Cyprus Government. This dates back to
the early years of British rule in the late 19th century.
Discovered in 1934, this significant site revealed numerous
stone foundations of bee-hive shaped houses, usually
circular. The houses themselves would have been of mud
brick and the ancient inhabitants of Choirokoitia buried their
dead under the floors of their dwellings. As many as 26 adult
and infant skeletons have been discovered beneath 8
superimposed floors in one of the houses.
The Bust of Zeno stands at Europe’s Square in Phinikoudes
Avenue. Zeno was born in Kition (ancient Larnaka), in 326
B.C. After studying philosophy in Athens he founded the
famous Stoic school of Philosophy.
Ancient Kition: The earliest architectural remains date back
to the 13th century B.C. In about 1200 BC the area was
rebuilt by Archaean Greeks. The remains of the Cyclopean
Walls, made of giant blocks and the complex of the five
temples are of interest.

The Hala Sultan Tekke lies on the banks of the Salt Lake.
Within the precincts of this Tekke is the tomb of Umm
Haram, said to be the foster mother of Mohammed.
According to Moslem tradition Umm Haram died on this
spot in 647 A.D. while accompanying the Arab invaders. She
was buried here and later the Ottomans built the present
Choirokoitia: It is the oldest site that one may visit in Cyprus
and its dates back to 7000 B.C. It is included in the UNESCO
World Heritage List.
Stavrovouni
Monastery, about
15 miles from
Larnaka, stands on
the peak of a
striking
lone
mountain, over
which St. Helena,
the finder of the
cross of Jesus, saw
a strange light gleam. Taking it as a sign from heaven, she
founded the monastery and left a piece of the Cross
enshrined there.

LARNAKA
The traditional Village of Lefkara can be reached after a
pleasant drive through the hills. It is renowned worldwide
for its lace which is included in the UNESCO World list of
intangible Heritage.
The villages of Orini are in a mountainous area which is
studded with beautiful traditional architecture and old
churches. A visit to this area, which offers breath-taking
scenery is a must for the tourist as it is unspoilt and
untouched by tourist development. The most interesting
villages are Tochni, Skarinou, Vavatsinia, Ayioi Vavatsinias,
Ora, Odou, Kato Drys and Vavla.
Zygi Village
Zygi has started developing in a rapid mode during the recent
years as a coastal area. The deep blue sea, the fresh breeze
as well as the beautiful natural environment of the village provide a peaceful getaway. Several apartments and cottages
have been built, new roads have been constructed and the
services and infrastructure projects have expanded so as to
serve both the permanent inhabitants as well as visitors. Today Zygi is the best known fishing village in Cyprus.
The Venetian Castle of Pyla at the centre of the village
and next to the old church of Archangel Michael. Pyla is
the only mixed village in Cyprus, where Greek and Turkish
Cypriots have lived peacefully together for many years.
What to see & do
Tower of Regena, 17km west of Larnaka is the Venetian
observation castle near Pervolia village. The castle stands
on a hill overlooking the beach and the surrounding area
and was used by the Venetians and Cypriots for observing
the coasts to inform the people of the approach of pirates
and other invadors. From Pervolia castle they used to
make signals of fire and smoke to Pyla Castle informing
them of the coming danger.
- Fishing Reserve: was completed in 2011 and is the jewel of
the village. Highly recommended for strolls and to see many
professional fishermen at work as well as amateur anglers.
The old chapel of prophet Elias is on the top of the
highest hill of Voroklini village. The visitor may have a
breathtaking view of the whole Larnaka town, Voroklini
village and the Larnaka Bay.

SEPTEMBER 2015
this month
- Fishtaverns: since Zygi is Cyprus’s most famous fishing village, there are plenty of fish restaurants that offer a wide variety of fresh seafood.
- The Community Park of Zygi: includes a playground for
children, a kiosk, verdant areas and a volleyball field.
- Heroes Monument: a marble plaque with an engraved inscription in honour of the hero Georgios Koumparis and a new
park which was created in the honor of the 13 heroes of the
Mari explosion.

Franciscan Convent of Terra Santa
Cyprus potato salad
This is the church of the Latin community in Larnaka. Franciscan monk Callixte Martel founded the church and the
convent in 1596 mainly for hosting Latin pilgrims to the Holy
Land. In 1724 another bigger church and convent replaced
the first, which were demolished again in 1842 to be replaced by the present church structures. The convent is also
known as Santa Maria delle Grazie and its Latin style is one
of the best in Cyprus with Renaissance and baroque characteristics. It is on Apostole Mathieu Street, at a short distance
from Chrysopolitissa church. The Terra Santa church and its
catholic nuns of Italian origin have a long tradition of philanthropic services to the community of the town. They are now
running a home for the elder built at the place of the 19th
century convent in 1970.
