Temple of the 11th century, built on the remains of an early Christian church destroyed by the Arabs. Unique frescoes of the 6th century survived from the first building: a thick layer of plaster that covered them preserved their values ​​to this day. Frescoes were found only in the middle of the 20th century, during the restoration of the building. Not far from Angeloktisti, you can see an old tree, which is under protection as a natural monument.

Muslim city dwellers and travelers come here regularly. Since it is in this mosque that the ashes of Umm Haram are located - one of the key figures of the Islamic religion (according to various versions of historians, she was the nurse or aunt of the founder of Islam, the Prophet Muhammad). The complex, in addition to the main building, includes several living rooms for temporary accommodation of pilgrims, a cemetery, a mausoleum and a park. Guides in Larnaca recommend admiring all this from the opposite shore of the lake of pink flamingos.

One of the reasons for Mackenzie's fame is its good location - it is located near the airport. People relaxing on the beach can take original photos with the plane "in the palm of your hand" or over your shoulder. The beach line is covered with fairly loose brown-yellow sand. The entry into the water is shallow, so tourists with children are happy to relax here. The Finikoudes and Mackenzie city embankment combines a well-equipped promenade with paths for cyclists and pedestrians.

The area is famous for its colonial buildings built in the 19th century by the British. Having conquered the island, the latter began the active construction of government centers and warehouses. Today, the buildings have a completely different purpose: they are reserved for buildings for city services, galleries and museum complexes. In the central part there is a fountain illuminated in the evening with multi-colored illumination. The central avenue of the resort departs from Europe Square.
