Description

Being the island’s maritime capital, Limassol possesses the main commercial and business port as well as an exclusive, recently built, modern marina. This vibrant and lively city has something for every taste, from significant archaeological treasures to interesting shopping spots and countless dining options. First stop is the 13th-century Kolossi castle is a fine example of medieval military architecture. Next is the archaeological site of the ancient kingdom, Kourion. In the Roman era, Kourion was one of the island’s most important city-kingdoms, which you can still experience through its significant remains such as the magnificent Greco-Roman theatre and the fine mosaic floors in the ‘House of Eustolios’, the ‘House of Achilles’ and the 'House of the Gladiators', as well as the remains of the Roman Agora, the sumptuous public baths and the imposing early Christian cathedral of the city. Lastly, after exploring the ancient history of Limassol, you'll have the opportunity to enjoy a different not culture-related experience, yet as exciting, at the attractions of the Paradox Museum.
