The advantages of Larnaca as a tourist resort are numerous. The town is large
enough to give everything one may need but still is not overcrowded especially
at its beautiful beaches which extend for 25 kilometers. The archaeological sites and
its six museums are in the center of the city within walking distance.
Summer sports, sea activities and cruises are readily available. The shops are
well stocked, medical care is excellent, its cinemas are screening films
simultaneously with the cinemas of Europe and the USA. The variety of
restaurants, tavernas, cafeterias and bars is very great. The Cyprus "meze" is
the food specialty of the town. Night life is interesting and security in the
streets unsurpassed. Cultural life is rich and many events are organized by the
town's Municipality almost daily.

Larnaca is the oldest living city of Cyprus and was originally known as Kition, or Kittium. Legend has it that the first settlement at the spot was founded by Noah' s grandson Khittim. Unlike other ancient cities of Cyprus, which were abandoned by their inhabitants, Larnaca from the time of its founding 6000 years ago, has existed and still exists on the same site. Being in the crossroad of civilization from the early dawn of history, Larnaca has attracted many visitors. Some came as colonizers, others as traders and others as invaders, conquerors or tourists. The Greeks, the Persians, the Egyptians, the Romans, the Byzantines, the Franks, the Venetians, the Turks, the British and today all the annual three million travelers and tourists entering Cyprus from the town' s Airport, Port and the Marina.
The Kition City Kingdom was established by the Mycenean Greeks in the 13th century BC when it enjoyed the dual position of a rich port and a major centre of the copper trade. Remains of that period excavated in recent years can be seen in its Cyclopean walls and a complex of Mycenean temples. The very well preserved fortified port and shipyards are of a later period. Larnaca is the birthplace of the Stoic philosopher Zenon who taught in Athens in the 4th century BC. The Byzantine period of Larnaca is of great importance. It left many interesting monuments, among them the 9th century AD Basilica of Saint Lazarus. The town regained its standing during Ottoman rule when it became the diplomatic and commercial center of Cyprus. It was here that the British landed in 1878 to begin their rule of the island that was ended in 1960. The recent history of the town follows the very fast development of all of the country. In 1973 the population of Larnaca was 22.000. In 1974 Turkey invaded the Republic of Cyprus and the Turkish army displaced by force about 200.000 Greek-Cypriots, the inhabitants of its Northern part. Larnaca received and welcomed over 40.000 refugees, thus tripling its population overnight, now at 65.000. |

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.
