About Nicosia

Nicosia (Lefkosia), the capital of Cyprus, one of the oldest cities in our part of the world, is a sophisticated and cosmopolitan place in the Eastern Mediterranean, rich in history and culture, combining its historic past with the amenities of a modern city.

The heart of the city, within the 16th century Venetian Walls, has a number of museums and art galleries, Byzantine churches and a number of medieval and neo-classical buildings while the narrow streets retain the romantic atmosphere of the past.

Much of the charm and beauty of Nicosia is to be found in the old city with its labyrinthine alleyways and elegant courtyard houses. Outside the Walls, the new city is a modern and vibrant European capital.
