Larnaca, is the third largest city on the southern
coast of Cyprus after Nicosia and Limassol. It has a population of
72,000 (2010) and is the island's second largest commercial port and
an important tourist resort. Larnaca was founded by Greeks
(Mycenaean-Achaeans) in the 14th century B.C. and was known as
Kition, or (in Latin) Citium. The most important site of Larnaca
are the ruins of Ancient Kitium. Another place of interest is the
Marble Bust of Zeno. Zeno of Citium ( c. 334 BC -- c. 262 BC) was a
philosopher from Citium, a Greek city on Cyprus that had received
some Phoenician settlers. Zeno was the founder of the Stoic school
of philosophy. Palm tree promenade got its name from the palm
trees that line either side of the street. It runs parallel to the
beach in the old town of Larnaca. The tourist beach provides full
amenities and facilities. Outdoor cafes, English-style pubs and
restaurants line the street and tourists have a choice of sitting at
the restaurants and watching the waves or bathing in the warm
Larnaca waters. Halfway along the seafront is the statue of the
Classical Greek naval officer Kimon, who died here in a great battle
with the Persians. Next to the promenade is also a large marina with
berths for several hundred yachts. The Pierides Foundation Museum
houses a remarkable private exhibition of Cypriot antiquities.

Welcome to
Cyprus, an island of legends
that basks year-round in the light of the warm Mediterranean sun. A
storied past 10,000 years long has seen civilizations come and go and the likes
of everyone from Alexander the Great to Cleopatra stake their claim here - but
then, people do tend to get possessive when faced with such beauty. Aphrodite made her home on Cyprus,
and travellers throughout antiquity came here just to pay her tribute. TodayCyprus is a modern country that effortlessly
marries European culture with ancient enchantment. Here you will discover a
compact
world of alluring beaches
and fragrant mountain peaks, vineyards studded with olive trees and ancient
ruins that stir the
imagination, citrus groves
and old stone villages where sweet wine flows as freely as conversations at the
local café. A carefree
place where a sense of
timelessness is magnified by the kindness of the people. Step inside for
an in-depth look at an island that is as exotic as you imagine - and more
accessible than you might think.
