First, if you are over 175 cm (~5’10”) you definitely need a ball cap (hard hat actually) to help protect your head give a warning of impact. I am 185 cm or 6’ tall and hit my head hard several times. The passages are very short/low in many places and sometimes for quite a distance 30-50 meters). Some passages are also very narrow so if you are obese beware. There are many steps up and down so you must be able to walk without assistance. There are no explanations in the tunnels and very few have a sign indicating what the room/space was used for. They say it is 7 or 8 levels deep but you have no idea if that is true as there is no indication of the level inside. We eavesdropped on a few tour guides but didn’t get much out of that. It is interesting place but as a single stop for the price and bruise/cut on my head, I wouldn’t do it again. Perhaps with a tour it would be better- but there is no excuse not to have more information and explanation of the routes. (Hint- follow red arrows for going down, blueto exit). If you are claustrophobic or need more air, I would also avoid.

Derinkuyu Underground City in Cappadocia is a fascinating glimpse into ancient ingenuity. Descending through narrow tunnels and multi-level chambers, you can explore living quarters, kitchens, stables, and even hidden chapels carved entirely from soft volcanic rock. The ventilation shafts and clever passageways reveal how communities lived safely underground for months during invasions. It can feel tight in some areas, so be prepared for low ceilings and narrow corridors. Visiting early helps avoid crowds and gives time to fully appreciate the scale and history. A must-see for anyone curious about Cappadocia’s extraordinary past.

⚠️ This journey is not suitable for claustrophobes or those with mobility issues, as some passages are narrow and steep. This place, a couple of hours from the city, has a very interesting history and is a special place. It’s important to go with a good guide, I recommend getting it once you’re in Capadoccia.

Descending into Derinkuyu feels like slipping through the seams of history itself. This ancient underground marvel—carved deep into the volcanic rock of Cappadocia—is not just a city, but a story of survival, ingenuity, and spiritual resilience. With tunnels so narrow you’ll crouch like a hobbit and chambers that once housed entire communities, it’s hard not to be awed by the engineering and purpose behind it all. From kitchens and stables to a ventilation system that still works, every corner whispers of lives lived in secrecy and strength. ⚠️ Not for the claustrophobic or those with mobility issues—some passages are tight and steep. But for the curious and the brave, it’s a journey worth every step.

Absolutely fascinating place! Hard to believe people once lived so deep underground. The tunnels, rooms, and ventilation system are incredible — it really makes you imagine what life was like centuries ago. A must-visit in Cappadocia if you love history and hidden worlds! 🕳️✨

Derinkuyu Underground City — A Journey to the Center of the Earth Descending into Derinkuyu felt like stepping through a portal into another world. At first, the entrance seemed modest, almost unremarkable — just a hole in the ground of Cappadocia. But as I made my way deeper through the narrow, cool tunnels, the sensation of going into the Earth’s core became undeniable. Each step downward brought a growing sense of curiosity and wonder. It was impossible not to imagine the hundreds — maybe thousands — of people who once lived here, hidden away from the surface for months or even years, with their animals, food, and hopes. The very thought of an entire city carved out of volcanic rock, plunging eight levels and more than 60 meters deep, was astonishing. With every softly lit chamber, my heartbeat quickened. There were storerooms, stables, kitchens, churches, and ventilation shafts, all perfectly designed for survival. This wasn’t just a shelter — it was a masterpiece of human engineering and resilience. What amazed me most were the massive circular stone doors, used to seal off tunnels in times of danger — like stepping inside a fortress built beneath the ground. In the damp, echoing silence, I felt a strange mix of awe and unease. There was something profoundly human about this place — fear, faith, and ingenuity all etched into the walls. And when I finally climbed back to the surface, the sunlight felt brighter than ever. Visiting Derinkuyu wasn’t just sightseeing — it was a journey through history, courage, and the boundless creativity of those who once turned darkness into home.

It’s a mysterious and enchanting place, with a truly magnetic and spiritual atmosphere. Tolkien must have been inspired by this place when creating the Mines of Moria. Also, the cemetery on the 8th floor reminded me of the Nazgûl’s tomb from The Lord of the Rings. Cold be hand and heart and bone, and cold be sleep under stone: never more to wake on stony bed, never, until the Sun fails and the Moon is dead. In the black wind the stars shall die, and still on gold here let them lie until the dark lord lifts his hand over dead sea and withered land.

If you are near adana or mersin , give it a go.. nice place to take breakfast or simply cup of tea or coffee..there is a restaurant u can sit and enjoy the view and one of the passing train if you are lucky

I very much enjoyed the drive up and down, the views were spectacular and I've wanted to go there for most of my life, because my great grandfather worked here as a Prisoner of War in WW1.

It is definitely well off the beaten path but worth the trip. There is a nice cafe nearby for food and chai.

too far from Adana to go as a single attractive point but you may stop by a canyon nearby

An impressive historical bridge with stunning views! Varda Köprüsü, also known as the German Bridge, is a masterpiece of early 20th-century engineering. The surrounding nature is beautiful, and watching the trains pass over the high arches is unforgettable. A must-see spot for history lovers, photographers, and anyone visiting Tarsus or Adana.

Safety warning. You need to drive carefully to this place, the road is narrow, after driving for an hour in a narrow road you will be reaching a cafe where you can rest and enjoy the view of the bridge. Only sandwiches and drinks, no kebap lol. We left the area and had our nice grilled sucuk at ( Tekir Zirve Restaurant), located on the top of the mountain where the view is also amazing.

It is a very beautiful and picturesque place! I recommend you to visit.

A stunning mosque in the heart of Adana, it took 10 years from 1988-1998 to finish the construction of this serene magnificent complex. There’s a lot of greenery inside its premise which provides solace during the hot summers of this region.

If you are coming to the Mosque after seeing Taş köprü there is shortcut, an underground passage to the mosque but the passage stinks with urine and filth. You can make a bigger loop and pass through a traffic lights which are a bit far. But if you go through the underground passage the smell is terrible. Looks like an abandoned place. If you can bear the smell you can pass through it fast and reach the beautiful mosque that is worth visiting. I think municipal authorities should pay attention to this.

This is one of the greatest and beautiful mosque what I had ever seen! It's the second largest mosque in Turkey. There’re amazing views all around and exciting views inside.

Very beautiful mosque with awesome design and beautiful decorations. Very large interior and exterior surrounding yard. There is a huge park outside the mosque that has many activities for families and children. The mosque is also right on the river and a short walk from the old city.

This was my first visit to Adana. I explored the historical area around the clock tower, however the area near to this mosque was my favorite. It’s a big complex, the mosque it’s among the biggest most I’ve visited I. Türkiye. It’s supposed to be the biggest mosque between Istanbul and Saudi Arabia. The park around this mosque was my favorite place to walk in Adana.

It is one of the most important symbols of Adana, it has a fascinating structure and unique architecture, the Seyhan River flows past me, it is surrounded by the central park, which is a huge natural beauty, and it is one of the distinguished mosques that everyone should come and see.

Super nice and accessible. The inside is beautiful

A lovely historic bridge in the heart of the city, Adana. There are many historical places and museums around this bridge, so it is a lovely point to start visiting in the city 🥰

Adana Taş Köprü (Stone Bridge) was built during the reign of the Roman Emperor Hadrian in the 2nd century A.D. It spans the Seyhan River (known in antiquity as Sarus) and is considered one of the oldest stone bridges in the world still in use today. Originally constructed with 26 arches, 14 of them are still visible and standing today. The bridge has been used by many civilizations over time, including the Byzantines, Seljuks, and Ottomans, and it has undergone several restorations. Known for its architectural elegance and durability, the Stone Bridge is one of the most iconic landmarks of Adana.

Nice view, especially when walking on it. The bridge has been built for more than 1800 years.

A beautiful, well-preserved bridge. You can stroll to the other end and back, just as people have done for many hundreds of years. A view of the huge mosque to the north makes for a nice view. There's not too much to do at the bridge, so I'd recommend next heading towards that mosque through the riverside park on the west bank there, as the nice part of town is in that direction. Though beware of aggressive beggars and peddlers at the mosque.

Nice view. I saw it when the river was dry. Still nice. Some traditional music players might be there. Adana Landmark!

The stone bridge is located in the center of Adana city. It is very crowded on holidays. Sometimes local music is played. The view of the mosque and Sihon river is very beautiful. You can take good photos. There is no entrance here, it is open to the public

The bridge still stands after all these years, it’s simple but beautifully constructed, unlike those ugly bridges today. On the opposite site of the bridge, take sometime to walk the old town and the Ataturk museum.

The view of the falls is fantastic.. You definitely must see and take pictures when you're in adana or mersin it takes only 30 to 40 minutes to get there by car.

The view and location are very nice. It would be much better if they could organize the tables and seating a little more. The prices are a little high.

Tarsus Şelalesi is a waterfall located in Mersin, Turkey. It is a popular tourist attraction in the region, known for its picturesque setting and natural beauty. The waterfall is located in the Tarsus district of Mersin, and it is surrounded by dense forests and lush vegetation. It is fed by the Berdan River, which flows down from the mountains and through the forests before plunging over the edge of the waterfall. The waterfall is approximately 30 meters tall, and it is a popular spot for swimming, picnicking, and hiking. There are also several restaurants and cafes located near the waterfall, offering a range of local dishes and refreshments.

You might get lost looking for it but follow the water. Beautiful and in the middle of the city.. small but still a breath of fresh air and great for down time or picnics

I saw many videos about the waterfall of tarsus on u tube and others sites that shows a huge waterfall but at the moment i got there i was disappointed cuz it's wasn't as i was expecting it would be

The Restaurant next to the waterfall has good food to offer and tastes good. The waterfall does look really nice and is a good place for people, who like to be close to Nature, besides that it isnt such a big place, but definetly worth seeing.

Very beautiful watercolor, nice restaurants where u can appreciate the view while enjoy good food.

I really like this place. There are lots of cafe's and lots of shops. I went to the amusement park at marina twice, it was fun but I do wish for it to have more Rollercoasters and rides. There's not much when you go there and the roller coaster train isn't even that fast or scary. But I really like It there. 👍

Very popular place to spend summer evenings, with a lot of good restaurants in the area packed with customers. A lot of options to spend a nice evening sightseeing or enjoying the best Turkish cuisine have to offer.

The atmosphere is nice. The staff were very attentive. Good thing is it iwas closed or else we won't enjoy the place. The salad was good and it was fresh. Love the cake it was very moist. I also like the view. Overall I recommend this place.

Wonderful place , expensive brands, nice view and very clean

Mersin marina mall very nice mall with different choice of fashions brands and different types of restaurants and cafes, for family with kids there is games city and kids will enjoy, and for adults people they can enjoy walking there and take coffee or foods in coffee shops and restaurants i recommend this mall

Excellent service. We love coming for breakfast here. Tasty food, attentive stuff and a beautiful location by the water. There is an administrator here that speaks fluent English and is super friendly and professional. You could recognize him by a moustache. PS: if you like strong, dark roasted coffee, you need to try it here. PPS: our bill here was always correct, unlike other places.

Nice marina with plenty of nice shops and restaurants. Staff at the entrance barrier are very kind and helpful. Nice walk along the promenade into Mersin. Would defo recommend this place during the day or evening fir a meal and walk around the shops and look at the boats.

You can only look at the hell cave from above. You can go down to the heaven cave by stairs. You can go to the very bottom of my cave. The bottom of the cave is very cool. The atmosphere is magnificent. You can use the elevator on the way back.

A Must-Visit Natural Wonder – Stunning but Physically Demanding Heaven and Hell Caves (Cennet ve Cehennem Mağaraları) are a breathtaking natural attraction that truly lives up to its name. Located in Mersin, Turkey, this site offers a unique combination of history, nature, and adventure. The Heaven Cave is the main attraction, featuring a long and steep staircase that leads down into a lush, atmospheric sinkhole. The descent is physically demanding, but the reward is incredible. Inside, you’ll find a Byzantine-era church, adding a fascinating historical element to the site. The rock formations, natural lighting, and humidity create an almost mystical experience. One of the highlights is the glass observation platform, which provides a fantastic view of the caves from above. Walking on it can feel a bit nerve-wracking, but it’s worth it for the panoramic scenery. I initially didn’t know there was an elevator for the way up, so I struggled with the climb back. If you visit, I highly recommend using the elevator to save energy! A great bonus is that you can enter with the Museum Pass, making it even more convenient for those exploring historical sites in Turkey. Overall, this place is absolutely worth visiting, but be prepared for some physical effort. Wear comfortable shoes, bring water, and take your time exploring. A must-see destination for nature lovers and history enthusiasts alike!

It's a must visit place in mersin, however it's physically challenging. Slippery stones stairs while going down, luckily we used elevator for coming up(although it was for 65+years old). We waited a while in the queue for it but it was worth it. Apparently in the past there used to be an apply tree inside the cave, hence it's named heaven

This is a “must go” place if you are in the area. The site consists of The Pit of Hell and the Chasm of Heaven!!! There is a walkway to the glass stage to see the pit of hell. When you walk up the hill, the view of the pit and the Mediterranean is great. You need to take many steps down to the Chasm of Heaven. Once you are down you see the mouth of the huge cave. There is a church ruins (pretty well preserved) at the top of the cave. You can walk down to the bottom of the cave and the view from the bottom is amazing. The air is very fresh and the walkway is very nice. My 4 yr old son was able to walk easily down and up the cave. The good news is that you can take an elevator back to the top!!! There is plenty of parking and the entrance is NOT free. Don’t forget to visit Astim Cave!!! It is very close.

Cennet and Cehennem are two massive sinkholes in Narlıkuyu, Mersin. Cennet is 70 m deep with stairs leading to a Byzantine chapel inside, lush and bright. Cehennem is 128 m deep, dark, and inaccessible, linked to Greek myths where Zeus trapped the monster Typhon.

If you are not turkish dont go there for my 5 persons family they requested like $50 entry fee for the basic tour

It was amazing you may see there natural stalactite and stalagmite. The weather inside the cave is cold and humid. You may enter paradise pit by stairs, there are 450 steps of stairs (you gotta have strong lungs) you may go down by elevator to the middle level, then you have to walk to the deep side. But I realized that one of the stair is collapsed. It was like Sirat Bridge at Islamic Mythology... However hell pit, there is not much to see. There is no way to go down, just you may observe landscape through glass platform.

Hey there! If you're ever in Turkey near Mersin, you should totally check out Gilindire Cave, also called "Mirrored Lake Cave." It's a pretty amazing natural place. Inside, you'll see these super cool rock formations called stalactites and stalagmites. They've been forming for ages, and with the special lighting, they look really awesome. Just a heads-up, though, it can get super humid in there, so be prepared for that! But the best part is definitely the clear lake at the very back. It's so still that it perfectly reflects everything, making it look like a mirror. Seriously, it's a great spot for photos! Getting around inside is pretty easy thanks to the stairs and walkways, which are generally good for walking. However, there are quite a few steps, so it can be a bit tiring, especially on the way back up. Scientists have even found stuff here from the Ice Age, which is pretty neat. So, if you're into nature and seeing something a bit different, Gilindire Cave is definitely worth a visit. You won't regret seeing this hidden gem!

Breathtaking views scenery both outside and inside must see. Entry fee as of today was 19TL definitely with it. I recommend once inside cave go all the way down first then slowly come back up enjoying cave views as straight up can be tiring. Great lake view at bottom.

Really beautiful drive and Goodview right before the entrance entrance fee 60 liras which equals $1.50 Lots and lots of stairs that trip starts going down it ends in a lake down the cave but you have to get all the way up upset stairs after finishing Really hot comparing to the average temperature outside,, especially because of the stairs Going down there and up back it takes around 45 minutes Friendly guy in the tickets place

I have visited Carlsbad caverns in New Mexico and Waitomo caves in New Zealand. The Gilindire caves in my opinion are much more enjoyable caves to visit. Inside the caves is a very well designed walkway and stairs the entire length/depth. The cave descends probably down to sea level and terminates at a platform overlooking a large crystal clear pool. You can hear bats 🦇 in the cave but I couldn’t spot them. In spring of 2025 the cost to see the cave was 60TL or $2 USD. Staff are exceptionally friendly and welcoming! If it’s the middle of summer it would be a nice thing to do to escape the heat. I’ll definitely come back and visit.

Very impressive, not cold inside, water surface lays by -47meters to sea level, 560 steps down, amazing lights inside, really cheap entrance

Worth to see. More than 70 m depth. Very high humidity. And a lake at the bottom. Nor for everyone.

Also known as Aynalıgöl Cave, Gilindire Cave is located 7.5 km southeast of Aydıncık district, between Sancak Burnu and Kurtini Creek. The cave, whose entrance faces the sea, can be reached from the sea and land. The Gilindire Cave, which is 351 meters long in total, is a horizontally developed cave. The inside of the Gilindire Cave, which is right on the edge of one of the beautiful bays of the Mediterranean, is covered with all kinds of dripstone formations. These stalactites, which have reached enormous sizes and are extremely beautiful in appearance, have divided the main gallery into many halls and rooms. In addition, the large lake at the end of the cave and the stalactites, stalagmites, columns, walls, curtain dripstones and cave needles that form islands on the edge of this lake have turned the cave into a fascinating environment.

Kantara Castle is absolutely worth a visit! It’s an amazing spot with free parking and easy access. Just make sure to wear comfortable shoes for the walk up. The best time to go is at sunset , the views are simply breathtaking.

Breathtaking. Be careful as is steep and wear comfy shoes. Bring Turkish lira in cash. The drive up is exciting. The drive back is confusing on Google maps towards the bottom where the little town is, best follow locals on the roads towards the main highway. You will enjoy.

These castle ruins had a small entrance fee to walk up. Make sure you have sturdy footwear as lots of uneven surfaces and steps to climb. Their was a small parking area and toilets at the bottom. As you walked up their are lots of areas to explore and to enter. Some were quite intact and some in ruins. At the very top was lovely views over the land and coast. Well worth the visit. Plenty of places like walls and rocks to sit and rest on the way. A lot of places have no barriers

It's a bit of a drive but very worth it for the views. There are stray cats so bring some food like cooked eggs, don't chase them. They are scared. It's free to entry after hours

Very beautiful Castle with a couple of rooms. I enjoyed the sunset view there. The road is very good and comes almost directly to the castle. The territory is quite clean. The views are fantastic with the observation of 2 sees on both sides. I will come there again for sure. Buffavento give a great view, but it's hard to climb there, while canara is a great choice for all needs and all reasons! I like it very much!

The Byzantine fortress from the late 11th and early 12th centuries served as part of a defense system against Arab invaders. It is well preserved to this day. From the top there are beautiful views of the mountains and the sea. A rather winding road leads to the fortress. It is better to choose a day that is not too hot for sightseeing, although the inside of the fortress is cool even on a hot day. Almost all paths are equipped with railings, so you can walk with children. I recommend wearing sneakers or shoes comfortable for walking on stones.

Nice small castle fun and quick to explore,the area was fairly clean. Entry ticket cost 50 lira per adult, this was not advertised anywhere, so I didn't bring a lot of cash in lira and euros/ card not accepted, so couldn't cover for 2adults yet they still allowed entry and paid 20 lira in the end for 2adults. Always a lack of info on the north side no matter where you go.

This is a great place to visit, especially at sunset. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes because of the stones, and steps. It’s easy to be there 2 hours or more. They have a small cafe in the courtyard, a gift shop and a museum. The WC costs 10TL. The entry fee is 50TL.

Girne Castle is undoubtedly a beautiful and fascinating place. Its history, architecture, and the view of the harbor are all truly impressive. Walking through its ancient halls and standing on its walls overlooking the sea made me feel like I was touching the layers of history that have shaped our island. But as a Greek-Cypriot, visiting this castle also stirred deep emotions. I couldn’t help but feel like a stranger in my own homeland—a feeling that’s hard to explain unless you’ve lived it. There’s a quiet sadness that comes from knowing how divided we are, despite sharing the same island, the same sun, and the same humanity. One day, I truly hope to see a Cyprus where people from both sides treat each other with more kindness, respect, and understanding.

Nice place to visit and spend time in many restaurants and cafe shops, some a bit overpriced or have small portion but there are few good ones. ever since the area were renovated it's get nicer and have good atmosphere. On weekends and holidays it's get crowded.

Amazing view from the castle! This is the biggest castle that I visited in Cyprus. This is the must go place if you want to see a beautiful port, sea and mountain.

This fortress was much bigger than what I expected. It definitely worth to visit if you are in Girne. It was a bit dirty with empty cans and water bottles everywhere. I hope the staff (and visitors) pay a bit more attention to keep it clean.

Great big castle to visit. Tickets can be brought at the entrance. Hot weather can make it hard to go around, but definitely recommend going to the top of the castle for amazing views. Little cafe at the middle of the castle serving food, coffee and cold drinks, unfortunately my food arrived 20 minutes after my partners and you have to pay extra to use the toilets in the castle which I found odd as you use the cafe an pay entrance fee to the castle. Make sure to check out the Ancient Shipwreck Museum, housed within Kyrenia Castle. Not much maintenance in the castle as it’s common to see cigarette butts or rubbish on the floor.

The most impressive castle in Cyprus, although even that is not very well preserved. It houses a small archaeological museum dedicated to a small, very old wreck. Otherwise, nothing remarkable. All you can do is walk along the dilapidated walls and admire the panorama, which is quite beautiful. In the inner courtyard there is also a small kiosk with a terrace, where you can have a drink.

A small port, not very spectacular. A mix of small boats, pleasure and fishing. On the shore several restaurants with terraces. Not very crowded, around 2:00 PM. The area looks decent, seems recently renovated. In the immediate vicinity is the castle, in a rather bad condition.

The harbour is beautiful. You can walk all the way round the harbour and past the castle. There are some lovely shops, bars and restaurants, we found a great rooftop bar for cocktails and beers with views over the harbour. Definitely spend half a day wandering round and exploring the side streets that lead off the harbour. On our previous visit we took a boat trip along the coast which is also beautiful.

Beautiful place . So atmospheric. The food is out of this world .

Great place to relax and people watch. Numerous cafes and restaurants.

Underrated harbour This peaceful place reminds me of portofino a very well known harbour in north Italy Only it’s nicer and the food is great

This is a very beautiful place. A piece of Cyprus's history. Every turist in North Cyprus should visit this place.

Gorgeous place to visit. Unlimited restaurants. Great shops. Boat tours. Castle tours. Pretty much a full day out. Upmarket seaside bars and casinos. Lots to do and see. Extremely hot in the summer though so remember the sun tan lotion. Well worth a visit.

Had a really nice stay with my family and the service was amazing. The staff were so attentive and kind. They were helpful at meal times with our baby and always made an effort to talk to her and engage with her. The hotel is huge and there is good entertainment. There were plenty of bars and a lovely cafe. Soft play and games room for kids. I feel it is more of a 4* resort and that’s fine but I don’t think it’s quite 5*. Having said that we would absolutely stay again.

Rested in July 2025. Very satisfied. Very large selection of food, in the dining room there are many waiters who bring everything, clean it. The dining room has a beautiful view of the sea, close to the sea. Good service in the bar. The beach is beautiful, there are free sunbeds, always cleaned. There is security on the beach. The sea is very clean and warm. Temperature +35. There are also 2 large pools and 6 bars on the hotel territory.

Fantastic hotel and unforgettable vacation! This hotel truly exceeded expectations. Beautiful sandy beach, clean and spacious pools, and great water slides for those who enjoy some fun and activity. Every evening featured high-quality entertainment: themed shows, live music, and lively parties. There was always something to enjoy, and the atmosphere was vibrant and engaging. The food was outstanding – a wide variety of fresh, delicious options including royal shrimp, octopus, sushi, and various types of meat. Each dinner had a different theme (Mexican, Chinese, Italian, etc.), which kept things exciting and flavorful throughout the stay. Rooms were cleaned daily, and the staff was professional, helpful, and always friendly. The weather was also surprisingly comfortable for July – warm, but not overwhelmingly hot. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a well-rounded, relaxing, and high-quality vacation.

This hotel was very clean and well maintained. It's a well organised hotel, plenty of food, and a massive selection of different dishes to choose from in any of the multiple restaurants. There were very well shocked bars to get a drink from. We strolled up the pier one evening and stumbled across a disco with late evening entertainment with a massive tray of shots... and another bar. All of the staff were very polite and friendly. The pools were kept very clean. There was a splash pool with large slides and lifeguards to keep everyone safe. We will go back next year.

I had an amazing stay at Salamis Bay Conti Hotel! The location is absolutely perfect - right by the beach with stunning sea views and easy access to everything you need. The rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable, with all the amenities you'd expect from a 5- star hotel. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always going out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. The food was also a highlight – delicious and with a great variety at every meal. The pool area and beach are beautiful and well-maintained, making it a perfect place to relax. Overall, this hotel really exceeded my expectations and made my trip unforgettable. Highly recommend it for anyone visiting the area

Clean hotel, friendly staff, delicious food. The furniture is not very luxurious, and the hotel is not brand new; but it feels like an authentic, familiar place. The sea is sandy, which makes swimming very enjoyable.

I’ve been coming to this Hotel for many years and cannot fault it. As soon as you arrive at the hotel reception staff will be there with a big smile on their face warmly greeting you. Room views and the cleanliness is amazing. Different theme menu’s everyday. Entertainment all day long. Guest Relations Team welcoming and resolves questions. Special thanks to Ms.Cemaliye Gr. Asst.Manager.Family oriented and professional Safe Hotel.Highly recommend.

A beautiful ruins to look around. We did a tour which we found informative whilst walking around and appreciating the architecture of the building and ground. Finish off our visit with a fresh cold drink at the cafe by the entrance. 8 minute walk uphill from the car park where our coach dropped us off.

Worth a visit for sure. Parking may be tricky but great gothic half ruined architecture. The mountain backdrop makes for a dramatic scene. You can see everything in about half an hour

The ruins of a former monastery. They still house a small church. All in all, nothing "wow"... The area is beautiful, clean, full of greenery and flowers. In addition, from the monastery courtyard you have a very beautiful panorama, with the sea and Kyrenia visible in the distance. There is also a restaurant, adjacent to the monastery.

Bit different from the normal ruins. The restaurant, bar and cafe is attached to the abbey so I felt a bit strange but it's a popular place for locals because of that. Therefore there is shuttle bus service, 30 TL for a single ticket, very easy access and a nice view. There are nice hotels and restaurants. You can take a bus from a big parking space. There's some signboards there.

Walking around Ballapais monetary, there was no audio guide or tour guide available to purchase on the day. You just walk around yourself. Tickets are available to purchase on the day and parking was available. A few of cafes and restaurants near by to enjoy afterwards.

It's amazing place to visit around Girne. It has great architecture and nice place for photography.

It has amazing views. Interesting ruins to walk around - lots of stairs to see everything. Inexpensive to enter. Not much information about the building.

I've been once before as a teen and brought my partner with me this time. We enjoyed it very much! The walk up is very long and tiring, definitely take a breather now and then when climbing up the stairs to get to the peak. Beautiful views and well preserved. Only downside is that the Turkish Army closed it down early the day we went for something so we did rush a little.

Beautiful place. Shame that people don’t respect the no smoking and no littering signs. Also be wary of cafe .. asked for a Turkish coffee as had just seen them make one .. only to be told no.. only coffee available is from the espresso machine at €3 a cup. On leaving saw more customers having Turkish coffee.. definitely feel like it was a ‘tourist tax’ .. ..so be warned 😡

We got in just nefore 3pm and we're told to get down to the ticket office by 4pm. Tho on the outside signboard it says last entray 4.30pm That's apparently not the case today. This seems to do with it being part of the military base So changes to opening time can occur at anytime without notice. The view was really pretty we first went to john's church/chapel then we went to the peak 734m above sea level. The walk up there was not hard. I'd rate it medium difficulty tops. The road is a bit uneven and can be slippery after rains So make sure you wear proper shoes for that. We got to the top around 3.35 So 30-35min is enough for a person who is moderately fit to get up and we got down just before 4pm. Made a few other stops to see the beautiful queens' window too. We didn't visit the cistern next to the beautiful Windows unfortunately as we ran out of time. I think 1.5-2hrs is probably good for here. 1hr is a bit short. There doesn't seem to be public transport here whatsoever. We got a taxi up there and when to the monastery then back to town for 70euros...

Lots of people have wondered how accessible it is for older, less abled folks to access the castle. I visited yesterday & I am 71. Yes I am very fit for my age but for such an awesome setting do NOT let other misleading reviews stop you going. The castle is easily accessed from the car park where a little cafe is located. It's currently,50 tl entrance (just over a £1) & even just inside there is the most incredible view of Kyrenia. The steps for levels 1 & 2 are perfectly adequate & not very tough (see pictures) if you do not venture inside the first lookout towers which are more of a challenge. The are some awesome things to see within the first two levels like the Byzantine Church. There is also a super little cafe with an amazing view of the north coast at Kyrenia, selling their refreshing lemonade (& mocktails) & a small selection of small gifts & postcards. Now there is the third level to explore & I spent 90 mins on that level it's astounding! Again see pictures of steps & now I would say you have to be reasonably fit or very determined if a slow ascent is within your capabilities. There are astounding parts like the royal apartments with amazing views but the higher up you go the more arduous it gets until the pinnacle of the summit at 732m. some 333' higher than the car park. Steps are a lot more uneven but with care & a firm grip of the handrails it's achievable. Various pictures illustrate some of my descriptions. Some reviews talk about unstable poor handrails, this is not the case they were all solid & firm & reassuring. Some people describe litter plastic bottles etc. Well the castle has provided loads of do not litter, pop in a bin signs but there will always be the mindless uncaring idiots who ignore this, don't let it distract you off visiting. It's an awesome feat of human achievement to the highest level & it has been there a 1000 years. The road 3 miles from the dual carriageway can be accessed from the dual carriageway in either direction despite what Google maps might show (I came from Kyrenia & turned right) & the road shows a few hairpin bends, again don't let this put you off, they are wide & easily driven. What more can I say except done let a visit pass you by if you are anywhere near. Allow 4 hours if you want to visit & photograph every nook & cranny! Hope the photos help you make the right decision, Go Go Go, it's awesome!

Well worth visiting, magnificent views, but you need to be reasonably fit to make the climb. You need good balance. Not for children under 12 yrs of age.

Worth a visit. Entrance cheap 1 eur. Takes 2 hours at least to see all, so don't expect to see and go quickly. Enjoy and feel. Lot of hiking - which is good, but even old people made it..

Beautiful. The hike to the top might be challenging for some people but well worth it for the fantastic views. Wear shoes with good grip. Probably our favourite spot on Cyprus.

Yesterday we went on a short visit to the city of Famagusta. A main point on the list of sights to visit was the Saint Nicholas Cathedral now called the Lala Mustafa Pasha Mosque. Like many other historical buildings, it had a turbulent history enduring earthquakes, wars, sieges, passing from the French to the Venetians and the Turks respectively. The building is built in Rayonnant Gothic style, similar to a portion of Notre Dame in Paris The French Lusignan dynasty, who ruled as kings of Cyprus between 1192 and 1489 brought with them the latest French taste in architecture, particularly a number of developments in Gothic architecture. The cathedral was built between 1298 and 1312 and was consecrated in 1328. The Lusignans would be crowned as kings of Cyprus in the Cathedral of St. Sofia (now known as the Selimiye Mosque) in Nicosia and then crowned as kings of Jerusalem in the Cathedral of St. Nicolae Famagusta. Even after about 700-800 years of history, the building has an impressive air due to its size and attracts a lot of visitors. As a historical "contribution", the Turks turned the Christian cathedral into a mosque by removing the Christian symbols, even building a minaret. To visit the (almost empty) interior you must take off your shoes at the entrance. The muezzin can be heard on mute...

Now a mosque, but originally known as the Cathedral of Saint Nicolas, and later Saint Sofia, this was originally a monumental gothic cathedral. It has been remade into a mosque by erecting a minaret, changing the interior layout and by installing a special water fountain to wash your feet before entering the mosque (you must take your shoes off before entering, as per Islamic tradition). Now, I'm an atheist, but it still just doesn't sit right with me to change the character of a building in such a manner, honestly. So, the building is still a sight to behold, certainly, but also, it may make certain people uneasy as well. It certainly did make me uncomfortable...

Magnificent Gothic architecture meets Ottoman history — the Lala Mustafa Pasha Mosque (former St. Nicholas Cathedral) is Famagusta’s most iconic sight. Peaceful, beautifully preserved, and full of character. A must-see in Northern Cyprus.

Built in 1328 in the image and likeness of the Reims Cathedral, the Cathedral of St. Nicholas has been the main church of Cyprus for two and a half centuries. In this cathedral the monarchs of Jerusalem were crowned. In 1571, Cyprus came under the rule of the Ottoman Empire and the cathedral became the Hagia Sophia mosque, to which a minaret was added a little later. Since 1954, the mosque has been named after Lala Mustafa Pasha, the Ottoman commander who conquered Cyprus. Without a doubt, the cathedral (and today the mosque) is an important historical fragment not only of Cyprus, but also of Europe...

The Lala Mustafa Pasha Mosque in Famagusta was originally built as the Cathedral of Saint Nicholas by the Lusignan dynasty between 1298 and 1312. It was consecrated in 1328. It stands as a prime example of Rayonnant Gothic architecture, often compared to France’s Reims Cathedral. After the Ottoman conquest in 1571, it was converted into a mosque and renamed the “Ayasofya (Hagia Sofia) Mosque of Mağusa. In 1954, it was renamed the Lala Mustafa Pasha Mosque to honor the Ottoman general who led the siege. The building remains an iconic blend of medieval Christian and Islamic heritage.

Nice square and church. There is a nice old tree to the side as well. You can have a look inside.

Mashallah .The intricate architecture and ornate details showcased the rich cultural heritage of the Ottoman Empire. Stepping into the mosque felt like a step back in history, with its well-preserved beauty and the echoes of centuries past. The serene atmosphere and the subtle play of light through the ancient windows added to the overall mystique. It was a truly enriching experience, offering a glimpse into the architectural brilliance and historical significance of this cultural gem in Famagusta.It stood as a testament to the cultural and architectural brilliance of the Ottoman Empire, offering visitors a glimpse into the rich Islamic heritage of the region.

An amazing place to see. We had a hire car to get us to the border from Ayia Napa. We asked the information desk to call a taxi. 20 euros to the Ghost town and the driver was really helpful, gave us his card to call him when we was ready to be taken back. Check opening times as it closes around 5. It's so eerie at the same time very sad to see.

This place is an absolute must see - it feels like you are on a movie set, only everything is real. You can easily use 2-3 hours here and still not see everything. You feel the vibe once was and it sometimes catches you as being a bit scary. I for sure wouldn’t like walking alone around here in the dark hours at night. I feel for the thousands of displaced people that lost everything and I wish for them that they one day will be able to return and get back all their properties they lost during the war in 1974.

Lovely place. It's so silent and deserted. Better to get there early before the bubbling tourist troop in.

A really puzzling experience, tbh. You walk in a city that has been completely abandoned 50 years ago, all the buildings are crumbling down, and you feel like you've been teleported in some sort of post-apocaliptic movie, but at the same time you see hundreds of tourists and locals in swimsuits cheerfully swarming in all directions like in any regular touristic area. In all this, every few blocks, some guy in a camo uniform guarding a checkpoint tells you that you cannot enter a certain street because part of the city has been turned into a luxury resort for the Turkish military. Very weird feeling. Interesting, tho.

Great visit. We hire the scooters, which was a great choice as the walk can be long

Nice beach, crystal sea when the beach is empty. The restaurant has many drinks and food, same price as greek side.

An amazing place to learn about the history of Cyprus and how it was lost it time of 1970's. Felt very sad too and a little eerie seeing all the empty shops and houses going derelict that were once full of life. You only have access to certain roads and it is mostly fenced of and security guarded, but definitely worth a visit to walk or cycle around. Their was some information boards. No cars allowed. Their is access to a lovely beach at the bottom with cafe and toilets. Access is free

Very interesting crossing point from the Greek part to the Turkish part of Nicosia.Friendly officers that check your passport on both the Greek and Turkish zones of Cyprus.It is known as the only divided capital in the world as shown above Greek Cypriot Police Checkpoint on the sign above.Very different on the Turkish part of Nicosia and hence Cyprus.Many different shops selling lot's of different brands at very cheap prices.Fascinating and intriguing being on the Turkish part of Nicosia and hence Cyprus.Only there very briefly for around 30 mins due to tight connection with Intercity bus from Nicosia to Limassol although I very much enjoyed the experience very much.

Now this is a good experience. For those of you that are interested. Travelled from the Turkish side (trnc) much more to see on this side than the south. You can more or less travel the green line. Passports have to be shown now to cross both ways. Not as good as 10 years ago as things on the northern side weren’t done up (cafes etc). History lovers will love it

Very easy to get either way once through into north there are lots of shops and eating places much cheaper than the greek side coffees for 1 euro. No photos of actual crossing point as its illegal. They accept all currencies so no need to change money

Its the second time I have been there and nothing reminds me the first time that i was excited many stores ,people all around ,coffee shops, Everything is different many stores have been closed ,coffee shops where closed , not much people ...dont know ...

I cannot recommend visiting the occupied North. We did not feel safe there and we were very relieved when we returned.

Delicious food, nice friendly atmosphere, the live music was a pleasant addition to the scene, the menu board was comical but quite practical too. Great place!!

At this point you has to show your passport to go to the turkesh side and after doing your visit you should do the same for the Cyprus side,No stamps or anything just scanning the passport.

Good beach for kids, nice sand and shallow water. Toilet is free, but shower cost 50cents. Almost no disturbance from people trying to sell you something.

Very good - this is a really safe beach for kids, with nice sand and fairly shallow water. The toilet is free (hurray) but the shower cost is about 50c. It can get quite crowded but the there is little hassle from people trying to sell you something. It can get really hot - so take or hire shade.

It's a wonderful beach. The location is perfect. There are restaurants, places to stay, and an amusement park nearby. It's a great beach for a family vacation.

No sand, only soil. Very dirty beach, not suitable for swimming or relaxing. Sunbeds are broken and in some places there are no umbrellas.

First beach in the closet proximity of Larnaca city center. Soft sand, clear water, and lot of restaurants with all the facilities. Public transport and intercity buses having stop here.

Central tourist area with many restaurants, big sandy beach and a nice promenade. Visit in the evening too.

Very dirty beach. People just leaving cigarettes on the sand. I've been here 6 years ago, it's nothing to compare. Please prohibit smoking on the beach and clean it. Uncomfortable sitting here.

From an architectural standpoint it’s a very pretty building and the interior is spectacular. I didn’t take any photos as I didn’t know if it was appropriate or not as it is an active church. But the paintings and reliefs inside are quite unique. And the building itself has a great history that’s interesting to learn about as someone who’s not tied to the Christian faith. The surrounding neighborhood is very quaint and has many good shops and restaurants/cafes.

This is amazing Church is a must visit if you are in the area. Beautiful structural architecture on the outside and inside to the amazing things you will see when you enter. If you can try and be covered up because there is a sign outside saying no shorts for men and women should ideally have their hair and shoulders covered but they do have robes for free on the outside to cover just in case you forget. Situated in the church are the most amazing icon pictures all over and the whole church is almost covered in gold. It is a particularly busy church with tourists in and out at all times. When you enter there is a lower two level where Lazarus bones used to be kept before they were moved, but his tomb still remains.

Hearing about this church and seeing some of the photos doesn’t really prepare you for the experience and history you are about to feel walking up to and inside this master of a monument. The outside is stunning, well preserved and sits on a lovely open space. When you enter it is very typical of a Greek church and lovely. Make sure you visit the tombs also under the church.

Travelled.fr9m.thw UK.for my friends wedding in this church. For me it will always be a place of great joy. It's a beautiful place to visit if you are in the area, just don't walk through the middle isle in yer t-shirts and flip flops when there are 250 of us in the .middle of a wedding ceremony lo

Beautiful church, very peaceful! We went there around at 1400 and it was closed. Advise to check the opening hours before you go. It opens in afternoon at 1530 but if you are there early, there are few souvenir shops that you can visit, enjoy lunch, take photographs, enough things to keep you occupied.

Visiting the Holy Church of Saint Lazarus was an unforgettable experience. I was deeply touched by the atmosphere and the spiritual energy of this sacred place. Bowing before the relics of Saint Lazarus filled me with peace and gratitude.

The holy church of Saint Lazarus in Larnaca is an old, lovely and holy church. It is a small church but beautiful from outside and inside. You can get inside the tomb as well.

What's not to love about a 1000 year-old UNESCO heritage site tucked in the middle of the Troodos mountains. Every single interior wall is adorned with stunning frescoes, all of which still retain remarkable color depth. The drive is quite beautiful, as well.

The Holy Church of Panagia of Asinou is one of Cyprus’s most celebrated Byzantine monuments and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, located near the village of Nikitari in the Troodos Mountains. Built in the early 12th century, this small yet magnificent church is dedicated to the Virgin Mary of Forviotissa and is world-renowned for its exceptionally well-preserved Byzantine frescoes. The interior of the church is completely covered with vivid wall paintings that span from the 12th to the 17th centuries, illustrating scenes from the life of Christ, the Virgin Mary, and various saints. These frescoes are among the finest examples of Byzantine and post-Byzantine art in the Eastern Mediterranean, showcasing incredible color, detail, and emotional depth. Surrounded by pine forests and mountain landscapes, the church exudes an atmosphere of quiet spirituality and timeless beauty. Its simple stone architecture contrasts beautifully with the rich decoration inside, creating a deeply moving experience for every visitor. Panagia of Asinou is a masterpiece of faith and art, offering a glimpse into the spiritual and artistic soul of medieval Cyprus — a must-see for lovers of history, culture, and sacred heritage.

A beautifully-decorated ancient church, covered on every interior surface with intricate icons. "Small but perfectly-formed", as they say. Entry is theoretically free like with all South Cyprus museums/attractions, a small donation in the church box is expected. When we arrived at 09:30 in February there was no one there, but we asked the restaurant opposite, who called up the priest, and 5 minutes later an old guy turned up with the key! There are public toilets right next to the church, although they weren't very clean.

The Holy Church of Panagia of Asinou in Cyprus is a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its stunning 12th-century Byzantine frescoes. Nestled in the Troodos Mountains near Nikitari, this small chapel offers a peaceful, spiritual atmosphere. Visitors praise its well-preserved interior art and unique rural charm. A must-see for history and art lovers, the church reflects centuries of religious devotion and Cypriot cultural heritage. Photography inside is usually not allowed.

It's such a beautiful church set in beautiful surroundings. When we arrived there, the church was closed even though it stated on Google that it was to be open. We were there in December 2022. We drove back to the village and found the priest who was more than willing to open the church. Father Kyriakos answered all our questions and guided us around all the wallpaintings in the church. Beautiful preserved and restorated. The church is a heritage site by Unesco. Well worth the visit!

Beautiful little church set in a rural area surrounded by pine trees 🌲

A little out of the way church that time forgot, reccomended for history enthusiasts that are in the area.

Amazing beach with a unique vibe! The view of planes approaching for landing right above the water is such a cool and unexpected experience. Soft sand, clear water, and comfortable loungers with umbrellas make it a great place to relax. Perfect spot for aviation enthusiasts or anyone looking for something a bit different from the usual beach scene. Clean, sunny, and super photogenic — highly recommend spending a day here! 🌊🏖️☀️

Nice clean beach with free changing and toilet facilities. Showers have a small fee. Sunbeds and umbrella is available for rent at 2,5€ per piece. Very great price and the equipment is in good quality. Fun place to watch the airplanes come in to land at the nearby airport.

Of the beaches we visited in Larnaca, this was by far our favorite! The crowd was a bit more relaxed and the planes landing at the airport were a fun bonus.

Clean beach groomed every day and here is the key Summary - Clear water, soft sand, no pebbles, umbrellas and restaurants - Since Airport is nearby, you will see planes landing from very low height - Many water sports activities - Access to washrooms, showers and drinking water but these are paid public services Recommended for a perfect day on a beach day out.

If you want to spot planes while enjoying the beach , this is the place. With plenty of good quality bars, recommend a visit

Very nice beach to spend time until your flight approaches. Enough parking spaces and beach bars.

Very nice public beach.. Sandy beach.. Good to go with children.. Has many restaurants and beach bars..

Went in April, no Flamingo. Learned from the local that they only come to salt lake between Nov and Mar. If you go in other months, the lake view is still enjoyable, just no need to feel disappointed or not seeing any bird.

Beautiful lake, flamingos can be seen only in the cold season. Visited in November and the water looked like a mirror, with lots of flamingos. Definitely worth visiting. Do not walk off the path, it'll startle the birds. There are 2 observation decks at the lake. You can get there with public transport.

It's very nice to visit although flamingos weren't there🥹

Larnaca Salt Lake fills with water during the winter and dries up in the summer to reveal a salt crust. This natural cycle attracts large flocks of migratory birds. Thousands of flamingos arrive from November to feed on the shrimp that thrive in the salt water.

Pink flamingos 🦩 visit the lake in winter. When I visited in mid November there were 2 big groups. Should bring a good camera to get a good picture. However you can walk around and enjoy the views. Various parking around the lake.

I visited it in November, and there were no birds, no water. Just a mud and salt. Large area covered by mud and salt. The guide said in winter there will be a lot of flamingo and water. It is located near Hala Sultan mosque.

Nice place for a walk alongside the salt lake, where you can watch the flamingos and other water birds. Great view of the Hala Sultan Tekkesi - this place has a ridiculous number of cute cats, it must be their sanctuary. There is several benches throughout the path, ideal to contemplate those magnificent birds.

Beautiful and well maintained place with kind and helpful monks and staff. Herbs and flowers are very high quality and beautiful, not to mention that the on-site shop offers a huge variety of products, produced by monks. Oils, teas and tinctures are high quality. The church is beautifully maintained and open to the public without any fee, this is rare in Europe. Unfortunately pictures are not allowed inside the monastery but that is the magic of the place. Mountain roads are well maintained and but dangerous regardless.

I’ve never experienced anything like this before. Machairas Monastery is not just an old church in the mountains — it’s a place where something shifts inside you. As soon as I walked in, I felt like time stopped. Suddenly, I started crying — without any clear reason. No words, just silent tears. It was a deep, pure emotion I couldn’t explain. There’s a powerful stillness here. Real monks, ancient icons, and the sense that you’re touching something sacred. The small shop offers oils, herbs, candles, icons, and prayers — many of them with healing or spiritual qualities. This place stays with you. You just want to be quiet, listen, and be grateful.

The Monastery is a piece of heaven. The place is very calm and quiet. I did not stay too much as this is a place to pray and I did not want to disturb the monks. This is the place to stay a couple of days if possible to rebuild the connection with God.

A beautiful Orthodox monastery nestled in the mountains. Men in shorts are given a robe to cover up. Only the church (a glorious sanctuary full of reverence and splendour) and the gift shop are accessible. No photos allowed in the church area. The shop sells icons, literature, honey, jewellery, Greek literature and more.

The Holy Monastery of Panagia Machaira is one of Cyprus’s most significant and picturesque monastic sites, nestled in the lush Troodos Mountains near the village of Lazanias. Founded in the 12th century during the Byzantine period, the monastery is dedicated to the Virgin Mary (Panagia) and takes its name from the miraculous discovery of her icon, said to have been revealed to two hermits by divine guidance and freed from a cave by a “machaira” (knife) — hence the name Machaira. What distinguishes this monastery is its sacred icon of the Virgin Mary Machairiotissa, attributed to Saint Luke the Evangelist, which has been venerated for centuries as a source of blessings and protection. The monastery has long served as a spiritual refuge and cultural stronghold, playing an important role in the island’s religious and national history. Architecturally, Panagia Machaira blends Byzantine and monastic simplicity, featuring stone walls, wooden balconies, and a peaceful courtyard surrounded by forested slopes. Inside, visitors can admire beautiful frescoes, gilded iconostasis, and monastic treasures, all reflecting the deep devotion and artistic craftsmanship of Cyprus’s Orthodox tradition. Today, the Holy Monastery of Panagia Machaira remains an active religious center, home to a small community of monks who preserve its centuries-old traditions. Its serene setting, rich heritage, and enduring spirituality make it a must-visit destination for anyone exploring the sacred heart of Cyprus.

It’s a beautiful Orthodox monastery tucked away in the mountains. If you’re a guy wearing shorts, they’ll give you a robe to cover up. You can only go into the church — which is stunning and full of reverence — and the gift shop. No photos are allowed inside the church. The shop has icons, books, honey, jewelry, Greek literature, and a bunch of other interesting things.

It was a lovely 1 hour drive from Nicosia. The drive through the winding, twisty road through the Machairas Mountains was breath taking. Its Spring time & all the terraced fields were shades of green. The almond trees were starting to burst in to flower. The air was crisp & fresh. We arrived at the Monastery just before the start of Orthodox Lent. The monks were preparing the Church and grounds. You can feel the sacredness of this place. Full of peace, calm, beauty & sanctity.

Great site with well thought out displays of the Neolithic settlement. It's amazing and mind boggling just thinking that people were living here 9000 years ago

Incredible to see what we may have read about. Considering how old the round are, amazing there are some remains visible today. The reconstruction shows what may have existed which is a great visual. You might spend around an hour here max. €2.50 entry. Free parking. Just be mindful google maps will try to take you further up the hill. When you see the coffee shop/carpark this is the entry.

Parking: 34.795401652843864, 33.34412704006363 Entrance costs 2.5 EUR per person. Information center has amazing souvenir s. The site is open between 8:30 AM – 5 PM It is one of the most important prehistoric sites in the eastern Mediterranean that added to UNESCO World Heritage List in 1998. Worth visiting.

A very historical site. If you like history then this is a good place to visit. We voted whilst on holiday and would definitely recommend. The staff was polite and site was clean.

Nice place and low entry price. Spent 1 hour here. Could be better if there was a 3D model showing village as it would have looked like originally. Not allowed into village ruins just around the edge along path. WC is available so good for a tiolet stop. Nice reception staff.

An uphill walk to the top of the settlement but well worth the effort. Information boards in Greek and English are available next to several points in the walk.

Great site with detailed reconstruction and explanations of the excavations and previous historical settlement. Toilets available too.
