Our tour will take you to see the only divided capital in the world. We’ll visit the green line, the line that divides the island and the capital in two parts. Our tour will cover the Venetian Walls of the 16th century by the Famagusta Gate, the Monument of Liberty and the Archbishopric with the Statue of Makarios.
We then drive to the picturesque village of Lefkara well known for its embroideries, laces and silverware. The narrow, winding streets with traditional old houses attracts many artists, but Lefkara is more famous as the home of Cyprus lace. Women still sit in the narrow streets and courtyards making lace and beautiful linen openwork in intricate and traditional patterns, as they have done for hundreds of years. Apparently Leonardo da Vinci bought the cover for Milan Cathedral's altar from Lefkara in 1481.
The Cyprus Night is THE social event of the Congress! Cypriots really enjoy sharing a delicious traditional Mezé meal with friends to be followed with traditional music and dancing, so our Cyprus Night promises warm Cyprus hospitality and much more! Mezé, meaning 'little bites' is a real feast to enjoy at a leisurely pace! It consists of a number of savoury dips, crusty village bread and an array of seasonal dishes. The perfect accompanying drink is local wine and the toast made with your glass raised high is 'Stini Yamass' - 'Your good health'. The Cyprus Night Dinner will be held in a Cyprus Tavern.

Tickets will be for sale at the Secretariat desk in the registration area for non-registered participants (subject to availability).
