Lemesos & the South
Superb Dining
Lemesos is famed for its innovative and sophisticated international and Cypriot dining, par-
ticularly in and around the historic centre. Check out the expertly renovated Old Carob
Mill, home to some seriously urban chic culinary choices.
Digging into the Past
Ancient Amathous was one of Cyprus' former four kingdoms and is one of several magni-
ficent archaeological sites in this region - another is Ancient Kourion, located high on a
bluff overlooking the sea. Plus there are museums, monasteries and a castle.
Lovely Villages
Some of the region's prettiest villages lie near Lemesos in the foothills of the Troödos
Mountains. Enjoy picturesque cobbled streets, traditional architecture and atmospheric tav-
ernas, as well as fascinating monasteries tucked away in the hills.
