We had the pleasure of visiting this art gallery on our recent visit. The artist was onsite and we greatly enjoyed chatting with him about his work. He has some amazing pieces with interesting stories related to them. We were pleased to purchase a print already framed featuring one of his “blue doors”. If you enjoy collecting art from your travels, this is definitely a place you’ll want to stop.

This is one of the few museums in the world where the visitor can touch and explore old medical instruments without restrictions. The visitor can experience how medicine was practiced in the old times, and also explore magic, incantations, medical words and many other aspects of medicine. We also have a 'Health Hangout' where we serve health drinks and herbal teas in a relaxing and interesting atmosphere.

Small museum still worth a visit. Full of medical items, interesting and most of all free, if you are in larnaca and want something to do I suggest take a look at this place and have a coffee and cake in one of the many local coffee shops less expensive than the ones nearer the beach

A moustache see attraction if you want a pleasant outing with a touch of interesting information about Cyprus and its history at local level. A family run home with a history down the generations.

Petreon Sculpture Park is the culmination of a dream and 14 000 hours of work. An ever-growing collection of large scale sculptures in a permanent open-air exhibition is the main - but not the only - park attraction. An extensive collection of small sculptures are scattered throughout the grounds. In the small stone church you can get intimately acquainted with the byzantine icon tradition through the collection of hand-painted icons and the "Archontariki" gallery is hosting various exhibitions, including small scale sculptures and paintings. The small amphitheatre "Liasidion" plays host to a number of poetry and music nights on summer evenings. Plant lovers have the opportunity to see more than 200 different varieties of cactuses, as well as a vast array of Mediterranean fruit trees and plants. The Park operates by appointment only. Do give us a call or message before you plan your visit.
