Museums of Ayia Napa

The bustling coastal areas of Protaras and Ayia Napa are known for their stunning beaches. However, if you’re looking for something more than just enjoying the sun, you can visit lesser-known places. For an amazing cultural and historical experience, it’s definitely worth leaving the city center and heading to the charming village of Avgorou. Once you arrive in the village, you will find the Avgorou Folk Art Museum, which is housed in a meticulously restored old farmhouse and stands as one of the finest examples of traditional architecture in the region, marking the local community’s efforts to preserve its cultural heritage. Another museum worth visiting is the Thalassa Museum located in Ayia Napa. The Thalassa Museum will give you insight into Cyprus’s history and its long-standing relationship with nature and the sea. To learn more about Cypriot tradition, the Farm House Museum in the central square of Ayia Napa is another wonderful cultural attraction that you should add to your list.
