Hidden in Cyprus lies a place where time has quietly slipped away. Foinikas – often whispered about as the Foinikas Templar Knights Village – is a hauntingly beautiful ghost settlement that feels suspended between history and myth. Abandoned homes stand open to the wind, stone doorframes lead into silence, and the surrounding landscape slowly, gently reclaims what once belonged to generations long gone.
Here, the past is not just seen — it is felt. The soft sound of the breeze, the warm scent of wild herbs and the distant shimmer of thereservoir create an atmosphere unlike any other place on the island. Foinikas Templar Knights Village is a world of forgotten stories, a village carved into memory, waiting to be rediscovered by those who seek something deeper, quieter and more mysterious than the usual attractions of Cyprus.

Welcome to the Karpaz Peninsula – where time slows, silence deepens, and nature still reigns.
On this Private Karpaz Peninsula Tour, you’ll travel to Cyprus’ most remote and untouched region, where turquoise waters meet endless golden beaches, and wild donkeys wander freely through the hills.
Often called “the finger of Cyprus,” Karpaz stretches far into the eastern Mediterranean, offering breathtaking landscapes, rare flora and fauna, and a glimpse into an older, gentler world.
Visit abandoned monasteries, walk along windswept shores, and stand at the island’s easternmost point, where, on clear days, you may even see the distant coasts of Turkey and the Levant.
It’s not just a day trip — it’s a journey into the wild, authentic heart of Cyprus.
Deep within the Cypriot countryside lies Foinikas, an abandoned Templar village shrouded in mystery and history. Once a stronghold of the Knights Templar, this medieval settlement has been left to the elements, creating an eerie yet fascinating atmosphere. Wander through its forgotten stone structures, explore the remnants of ancient homes, and imagine life in a time long past. This off-the-beaten-path destination is perfect for history enthusiasts, photographers, and explorers looking for an adventure beyond the usual tourist spots.
Cyprus is famous not only for its stunning beaches but also for its breathtaking mountain landscapes. Kakopetria, a charming village in the Troodos Mountains, is one of the island’s best-kept secrets. With its winding streets, traditional stone houses, and stunning natural scenery, this destination offers a truly unique experience.
