Wow if this is not a great local museum which is housing an impressive collection which will impress anyone, whether you were a fan of prehistoric artifacts Or classical antiquities. Although there is still much work that could be done with the presentation of the artifacts it is indeed an impressive collection in any person who wants to know about the history of Cyprus to check out this museum it’s free to the public has a great gift shop.

Small but perfectly formed. Lots of amazing statuary to wander through. Small enough to not be overwhelmed but big enough to be interesting. Quite a walk from where we parked but worth it. Restrooms and a shop/Bookshop for souvenirs. Worth a visit.
