Selimiye Mosque, built in the 13th century as the Saint Sophia Cathedral, lay in the heart of Nicosia and was once the coronation cathedral of the Lusignan kings.

Stop At: The Samanbahce Quater, Kaymakam/Mahmut Pasa, Nicosia Cyprus
Situated not far from the Kyrenia Gate, with its 72 tiny courtyard houses, the Samanbahçe was the first Social Housing Project in Cyprus. All houses were built using traditional building materials according to the traditional Nicosia-House plan. This charming neighbourhood, with its long narrow streets full of flowers and sleepy cats today, reflects Nicosia's way of life at the beginning of the 20th century.

Stop At: The Arabahmet Mosque, Nicosia Cyprus
The Arabahmet Mosque is situated in the Arabahmet Quarter, one of the historic and prestigious neighbourhoods within the walls.

The residential buildings here reflect the architecture and tradition of those times. Apart from the mosque, this quarter is now well known for its modern coffee houses, bars, and restaurants on top of the city walls.
