Activity itinerary

Bandabulya Municipal Market
  • 1h
Built during the British Period and located right in the heart of the walled city, on today’s Green Line, Bandabuliya is the covered market in the north part of Nicosia where you can find fresh fruits and vegetables, traditional sweets, and a wide range of goods, such as books, records, and souvenirs. During your visit to the municipal market, you will hear about the food culture in Cyprus and taste the local products and fruits.
Selimiye Mosque
  • 15m
Selimiye Mosque, built in the 13th century as the Saint Sophia Cathedral, lay in the heart of Nicosia and was once the coronation cathedral of the Lusignan kings. This cathedral, converted into a mosque in the late 16th century, is considered one of the island’s most beautiful examples of Gothic sacral architecture. The cathedral/mosque is closed for renovation at the moment. We will see it from outside.
Buyuk Han
  • 1h
The Great Inn (Büyük Han) is the most impressive monument from Ottoman times in Cyprus. With its artisan workshops and traditional café and restaurant, this 16th-century building is the hub of activity in Nicosia. Not far from this monument, together with your local guide, you will discover the best-tasting traditional Cypriot shish.
The Samanbahce Quater
  • 30m
Situated not far from the Kyrenia Gate, with its 72 tiny courtyard houses, the Samanbahçe was the first Social Housing Project in Cyprus. All houses were built using traditional building materials according to the traditional Nicosia-House plan. This charming neighbourhood, with its long narrow streets full of flowers and sleepy cats today, reflects Nicosia's way of life at the beginning of the 20th century.
The Arabahmet Mosque
  • 1h
The Arabahmet Mosque is situated in the Arabahmet Quarter, one of the historic and prestigious neighbourhoods within the walls. This quarter in the western part of the city of Nicosia used to be the centre of culture and business during the Ottoman and British eras. The residential buildings here reflect the architecture and tradition of those times. Apart from the mosque, this quarter is now well known for its modern coffee houses, bars, and restaurants on top of the city walls. With your local guide, you will visit one of the smallest and most authentic restaurants in this area and taste homemade Cypriot specialities, as well as the local beer. After the tour, you can end your day in one of the street cafes on the city walls.
