Salamis Ruins - a little bit of Historical Treasure

An ancient site surrounded by legends and mysteries, excavations show that the ancient  city's history dates back to the 11th century BC. Salamis was once the most powerful cities of the Mediterranean. Several kingdoms ruled here amongst others, Assyrians, Greeks, Egyptians, 

Persians and Romans have ruled the city. Take a long look at the breath-taking amphitheater before you leave and don't forget to take a picture! Archaeological finds are at the museum  at St. Barnabas Monastery a few kilometers from Salamis. Outside the area there is both a restaurant and picnic area. Also visit St. Barnabas monastery and ruins of Enkomi when you are in the area.
