 | | Excursions: Nicosia District extends westwards into the vine-covered Troodos Mountains, where there are magnificent forests and valleys, and hill resorts such as Kakopetria, and the Byzantine churches in Galata. |
 | | Other attractions include the District Museum, the castle overlooking the harbour, the Tombs of the Kings, the remains of the Byzantine castle of Saranda Kolones, the Panagia Chrysorrogiatissa Monastery and the Panagia Chryseleousa Church, the biggest early Christian basilica on the island. |
