Instagrammable Photo Benches with Views
Take in panoramic views and strike a pose at one (or all) of the photo benches sponsored by Larnaka Tourism Board and located at some of the most picturesque spots across Larnaka... and don’t forget to tag Larnaka Region on your social media pics!
Lefkara’s photo bench is a cubic structure overlooking beautiful mountainous scenery. The village is world-renowned for its handmade embroidered lace that is included on the UNESCO Intangible World Heritage List and was also awarded the status of ‘Best Tourism Village’ by the UN World Tourism Organisation’s in 2022. Adding to the village’s charm, the photo bench soon became one of the most photographed spots in the vicinity when it was installed in 2021.
At the Rizoelia National Forest Park of Aradippou, a pair of wings perched at the highest level of the park (by the cafe and picnic site) overlook panoramic views of the area bridging Aradippou and Larnaka municipalities. Rizoelia is a popular site for walking and jogging, offering a natural haven in the city.
In Choirokoitia there are two benches; a cubic design that blends harmoniously with the countryside environment with views across the village, and a swing bench that is lit up at night and offers sweeping views of the landscape. Choirokoitia is most famous for its Neolithic settlement and for its traditional products.
At Pervolia, a modern heart-shaped bench captures sweeping views of the pristine beach and Mediterranean waters and provides the perfect spot to stop along the coastal path and breathe in the fresh sea air.
Alongside the Larnaka Tourism Board benches, there is a honeycomb bench in Odou; reflecting its rich beekeeping and honey production history, and quaint Agios Theodoros village also has three benches: circular, heart-shaped and cubic, making the most of its sea and countryside views.
We love to see your snaps at the photo benches, so keep posting and tagging Larnaka Region… and enjoy the views!
