See the sights of southern Nicosia, the last divided capital in the world, on this guided walking tour. Today, you'll learn all about the history of the city – plus so much more – on a guided tour of the southern sector.
First up, you'll head to St John's Cathedral, the main temple of the Church of Cyprus – one of the island's main religions. It's not the biggest place of worship you'll ever see, but the cathedral is over 600 years old, so it's steeped in history. You'll hear all about it during your visit. From here, you'll get a lesson in Cypriot culture at the Folk Art Museum, which is housed in an old palace.
When you're finished looking around all the art and textile exhibits here, you'll go for a walking tour of Laiki Geitonia, a traditional neighbourhood that's nestled within the city's old Venetian walls. This place is loaded with old restored houses, restaurant-lined public squares and towering churches, so don't forget your camera.
