THE ONLY DIVISIONED CAPITAL IN THE WORLD

Nicosia

Nicosia is the only capital in the world divided into two parts – the Greek and the occupied Turkish part (36% of the territory is under occupation).

The bus tour is led by a licensed Polish guide who is a treasury of knowledge. During the transfer in an air-conditioned bus, you will learn many interesting facts about Cyprus, both historical and cultural.

In the old part of the city, you can see the Freedom Monument, a symbol of resistance and struggle for independence. There is also the beautiful Cathedral of Saint John the Theologian, a small Baroque church that looks unassuming from the outside but is decorated with exquisite paintings inside.

Nicosia, along with its Venetian walls, is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Walking through the narrow streets of the city, you can feel the traces left by different cultures and the unique spirit that the capital possesses.

The Leventis Municipal Museum is a treasury of exhibits depicting the history of Nicosia over the centuries, from ancient times to the present day. This beautiful museum is one of the gems of Cyprus, showcasing artifacts of craftsmanship, ceramics, textiles, photographs, maps, prints, costumes, tools, and furniture that illustrate the rich past of the city.

It’s also worth bringing your ID card or passport to cross the border and visit the occupied part.
