* Morning tour in Lemesos (Limassol): Successor to two city-kingdoms (Kourion and Amathunta), Lemesos is proud of its archaeological sites and mediaeval castles and its merry festivals of Carnival, Wine and Dancing. Here, we visit the Castle of Lemesos, built in the 13th century on the site of an earlier Byzantine castle near the old harbour. Legend has it that Richard the Lionheart, the King of England and leader of the 3rd Crusade, married here, Berengaria of Navarre, in 1191. Today, the castle houses the Cyprus Medieval Museum, whose exhibits include medieval pottery and superb silver Byzantine era plates. We continue to the Sanctuary of Apollo. Apollon Ylatis, god of the woodland, was the protector of Kourion. According to archaeological sources he was worshipped here from the 8th century BC to the 4th century AD. His sanctuary, which we visit, was an important religious centre. It consisted of Apollo’s temple, which has been partly restored, pilgrim halls, the ‘palaistra’, a bath complex, and a holy precinct. Next stop is Kourion, an important city-kingdom in antiquity and one of the most impressive archaeological sites in Cyprus. The magnificent Graeco-Roman Theater was built in the 2nd century BC and extended in the 2nd century AD. Excavations have unearthed the House of Eustolios, originally a private villa, which during the Early Christian period was turned into a public recreation centre. It consists of a complex of baths and rooms with beautiful 5th century AD mosaic floors. Meet with delegates for lunch and continue the tour.
