Unique things to do in Cyprus

This is not a regular city walk, but a passage through a town frozen in time. It will give you an insight into the current situation of the Buffer Zone “Green Line” off the beaten track, on streets that are hard to discover without the experience of a local guide. You will see the Venetian walls and how they form a border around the old city, so unusual that once seen on a map will never be forgotten as a design synonymous with the unique shape of this ancient fortification. On our walk we will explore the south side of the city and follow the infamous “Green line” that cuts through the center, separating the city into southern and northern sections. This division has kept the two major communities, of Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots apart for more than four decades. Our journey begins at the Ledra Palace hotel known in its era as the largest and most majestic hotel in the capital. You will witness life having evolved along either side of this schism, something once impossible to do until recent agreements between the two sides to open border crossings. We will explore Ledra street located at the heart of the aforementioned walled city now once again rekindled to one of the most popular pedestrian commercial streets accented by abandoned buildings reclaimed by nature through decades of lost time scarred by bullet holes, military outposts and barricades.

Our 3 hour boat trip will take you all the way down the coast to explore Cape Greco area, visiting sea caves and famous Lover's Bridge. Coastal view of Pernera and Protaras. Swimming stop in crystal clear waters of Blue Lagoon, and unforgetable experience to swim with turtles.

Join me on a journey through time in the last divided city of North Nicosia, strolling the back streets of the old city feels like dropping into an earlier era. Our walk through the medieval city starts in the district of Arab Ahmet, this area was one of the original 12 quarters as they existed shortly after the Ottoman conquest of Nicosia in 1570, where Armenian Cypriots had been concentrated since the Ottoman conquest, the entire area is imbued with a heady sense of yesteryear and is one of Nicosia's most interesting neighbourhoods to stroll through. We shall visit the Armenian church, first thought to have been established in the 13th century as the Abbey of Our Lady of Tyre and was handed over to the island’s Armenian community in the 15th century. As we continue our path we shall stop at the Arab Ahmet Mosque followed by the Buyuk Khan, Cyprus’ best preserve example of Ottoman caravanserai architecture. We will take a small break and sit down with a Turkish coffee and baklava as the call to prayer echoes and soak up the merging of old and new that permeates this side of the walled city. We continue our walk through the market area and visit the most prominent landmark in the old city, the Cathedral of St. Sophia, today called Selimiye Mosque.

Never had an experience with weaving before? Not a problem at all! I am here, to help you understand this traditional but mostly therapeutic art. Your enthusiasm will be the ultimate key to learn the Cypriot traditional technique named "Phytiotiko embroidery".

During a 3 hour session you will not only benefit from learning how to make a fabric, but also how to decorate it with the Phytiotiko motif called "Anthropoui" (little human). This experience can hold up to 2 (two) people at a time. Homemade lemonade will be served. At the end of the session you will own the woven piece you made. Framed and ready to find a place in your unique space!
