For those who wish to go further a field, Nicosia is very worthwhile day trip and is just 1.5 hours away.   Famed for being one of the oldest capitals in the world, and the only remaining divided capital in the world, the architecture here was influenced by the Lusignans, Venetians, Byzantines and Greek Orthodox styles and is quite magnificent.

Must see places are the Archbishop's Palace, St. John's Cathedral and the Byzantine Museum with its priceless and fascinating collection of icons and paintings.   The best place to stroll and take in the sights, sounds and scents of this beautiful old city is the picturesque old quarter of "Laiki Yitonia", a maze of charming winding alleys lined with shops and galleries.
