Nature
Larnaca Salt Lake & Hala Sultan Tekke
In winter, thousands of flamingos wade across a mirror-flat salt lake; on its shore stands the palm-ringed Hala Sultan Tekke mosque. A flat walking trail circles the water.

Heritage · Larnaca
A graceful Ottoman aqueduct of tall pale arches striding across the plain on the edge of town — floodlit after dark and reflected in the pools that still gather at its feet.
Plan your visit
Visiting Kamares Aqueduct
The Kamares Aqueduct is Larnaca's elegant 18th-century Ottoman waterway, its triple tier of pointed arches striding across the valley — especially photogenic when floodlit at night.
Getting there
On the western edge of Larnaca near the Kamares district, beside the old Limassol road.
Parking
Roadside parking near the arches.
Best time to go
After dark, when the arches are floodlit and reflected in the water; sunset also works well.
