visit the Archbishop Palace, which took much fighting during the invasion of 1974, and
St John’s Cathedral (Ayios Ioannis), within the courtyard of the palace. We will then
walk through Laiki Geitonia – a traditional neighborhood of Nicosia with narrow
winding streets and craft shops. In the Leventis Municipal Museum, you may see
objects from the history of the city and island. Arriving at the liveliest part of the old
city - Ledra Street, you will have free time for souvenir shopping and if you like, you
may visit the Turkish Occupied Area of Cyprus, separated by the UN Buffer Zone.
Saying goodbye to Nicosia, we will drive towards the charming and diverse Larnaca
