ABOUT
LARNACA, CYPRUS:
Because of the mild climate in the winter and
the genuine hospitality of the local people, Larnaca enjoys tourism at
very high occupancy rates all the year round. Larnaca with its wider area
has 9,500 hotel beds, about 10% of the total all island tourist capacity.
Along the Larnaca bay there are luxurious beach hotels as also hotel
apartments or holiday apartments of very high standards a prices generally
lower from the rest of the island. Larnaca being in the centre of the
country is the ideal base for exploring the rest of Cyprus. Its
international airport lies a few kilometres from the centre of the town
and still the town is completely outside the cone of landing and departing
aircraft. The most important site of Larnaca are the ruins of Ancient
Kitium. The earliest architectural remains date back to the 13th century
B.C. the area was rebuilt by Achaean Greeks. The remains of the Cyclopean
Walls, made of giant blocks and the complex of the five temples, are
particularly interesting. Another place of interest is the Marable Bust of
Zeno, which stands at the crossroads near the American Academy. Zeno was
born in Kition (ancient Larnaka) in 326 B.C. After studying philosophy in
Athens he founded the famous Stoic school or philosophy.
