There’s far more to Ayia Napa than the clubs and discos - although they’re certainly there. Originally a small fshing village, Ayia Napa is now a major tourist resort, full of tavernas serving fresh fsh. There’s a medieval monastery with a stunning octagonal fountain, a 16th century church that’s cut into a rock and built partly underground, and a tree in front of its south gate that’s said to be over six hundred years old.
Ayia Thekla With its sandy beaches and growing infrastructure, this village is now becoming very popular. You can find churches dating back to the twelfth century and a continuing tradition of basket-making. Potamos, a lovely old fishing harbour where you can relax over a fresh fish meze, is only minutes away. |
