Famagusta &#124; North Cyprus


Originally called Ammochostos (hidden in the sand), the town’s origin dates from about 275BC when it was settled by people from Egypt. The population increased and the port was established as the harbour of Salamis silted up and became unusable. Called Gazimagusa by the Turkish people, the city is still known internationally [...]]]></description>

Prior to the partition of the island in 1974, Famagusta was one of the “Hot” spots for tourism. The long sandy beach that stretches southwards from the harbour all [...]]]></description>

Like sentinels along the Cyprus shore, stand the slowly crumbling relics of a wealthy past. These are the remnants of an ancient trade that once helped make Cyprus very rich. Dotted along the coastline, now abandoned and neglected, stand carob warehouses that are inexorably crumbling into a state of ruin that will soon be beyond [...]]]></description>

 In order to get to the Royal Tombs it is necessary to leave the main site of Salamis, take the road that is signposted to St. Barnabas, and the tombs will be seen on the left. This huge necropolis has only been partly excavated and no doubt in years to come [...]]]></description>

Kampanopetra Basilica &#124; Famagusta


There is a track from the Temple of Zeus that leads towards the sea and the site of the Kampanopetra basilica or Harbour basilica. This is a serenely peaceful, and probably the most alluring, part of Salamis. Its attraction lies in the position it has on the shore with the usual east/west [...]]]></description>

Agora and the Vouta


Very close to the Epiphanios basilica is the cathedral-like cistern that provided water for the entire city. The water was transported through an aquaduct that was 45 miles long from a spring in the Kyrenia mountain range. Of the aquaduct, little is left apart from a few pillars and some arches that [...]]]></description>

Ayios Epiphanios Basilica


There is tarmac road leading from the rear of the theatre that forks left and right. Take the left fork and follow the road passing a villa with visible bath and furnace area on the left, until a crossroads is reached close to the late city walls. Carry straight on and there are [...]]]></description>
