When you find yourself in Cyprus, be sure to visit this archaeological park!
There are very convenient logistics, fascinating exhibits, a pleasant breeze from the sea, and a huge city parking lot very close by!

The location of the lighthouse on the territory of the archaeological park makes it the most famous of the five located in Cyprus. The park and the lighthouse are two completely unrelated objects. Different cultures, epochs, centuries, eras. Apparently, the construction of the lighthouse here is due to the suitable terrain. Namely, the high seashore allows lonely ships to see it from afar. It was built in 1888, but has not lost its purpose until today.
There is a maritime museum in the lighthouse building. Unfortunately, the visit to the lighthouse is now closed. Inspection from the inside is also impossible, as well as climbing to the observation deck.

I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in the ruins (archaeological park). The building is young (1888), but very atmospheric.
