L A R N A C A

Larnaca stands on the site of ancient Kition, representing a continuous thread of civilization for over 4,000 years, establishing it as the island's earliest and most enduring port of entry. Historically and presently, the city functions as Cyprus's welcoming hub, with its international airport and coastal promenade serving as a vital nexus for global travelers and cultures.  Its landscape is a rich tapestry of heritage, where the imposing Fort and the Church of Saint Lazarus contrast with the serene beauty of the Salt Lake and the Hala Sultan Tekke mosque.  The city's spirit is one of effortless convergence, fostering a vibrant local culture where tradition and modernity meet on the palm-lined Phinikoudes promenade.  A true cultural conduit, Larnaca offers the visitor a seamless transition from the island's most ancient past to its lively, modern-day Mediterranean reality.
