The Limassol Archaelogical Museum, has an abundance of Aphrodites, from all periods.
It has recently been enriched with from ancient cemeteries discovered during emergency excavations on sites where hotels were being constructed along the sea front, mainly on the site of the ancient kingdom of Amathus. The site of Amathus has become part of the Cultural Route of Aphrodite, a programme for cultural tourism launched by the Cyprus Tourism Organization which promotes Cyprus as the island of Aphrodite.
In Amathus where the Phoenician influence seems to have been very strong in the Archaic period, excavations have brought to light a very large number of terracotta statuettes of Astarte, capitals in the shape of Hathor's head, a limestone polychrome Hathoric stele which stood in proximity to the royal Palace in Amathus. It is the largest hathoric stele and finest of all those which has been found in Cyprus. It represents a head of the Egyptian goddess Hathor supporting a model of a sanctuary in the recess of which the uraeus, the cobra goddess symbolizing sovereignty, is placed. The goddess Hathor had many common features with the Cypriot goddess.

Toolse castle (German: Tolsburg) was a crusader castle belonging to the Teutonic Order. It was completed in 1471. At one point, it was the northernmost outpost of the Holy Roman Empire. In fact, Estonia was never part of that state.
Rakvere Castle offers many exciting activities for both children and grown-ups! You can try your hand at shooting a bow or a crossbow, sword fight and pike battle, forging, pottery, minting your own castle coins, and many other things.

Αθήνα | Κέντρο Μελέτης Νεότερης Κεραμικής
To Κέντρο Μελέτης Νεότερης Κεραμικής βρίσκεται στο κέντρο της Αθήνας και συγκεκριμένα στην περιοχή του Θησείου. Κατέβηκα από τον ηλεκτρικό στην ομώνυμη στάση και περπάτησα ούτε 1 λεπτό μέσα στην βροχή. Ο καιρός βροχερός άστατος αλλά έχω καλή διάθεση ! Προσεγγίζω το κέντρο Μελέτης νεότερης κεραμικής σε ένα όμορφο νεοκλασσικό κτίριο έναντι της εβραϊκής συναγωγής.
Το κέντρο έχει αίθουσες με συλλογές από κεραμικά της ελληνικής παραδοσιακής κεραμικής από τον 16ο έως και το 20ο αιώνα. Η ιστορία της κεραμικής ξεδιπλώνεται μπροστά μου καθώς παραδοσιακά εργαστήρια, παραδοσιακοί μέθοδοι κατασκευής πιθαριών, και ένας κτιστός κλίβανος μου μαρτυρούν την σημαντικότητα της λαϊκής αυτής τέχνης για την Ελλάδα.

Limassol Лимассол ليماسول - City Center MYMALL Limassol Marina
Limassol is a city on the southern coast of Cyprus. Limassol is the second largest urban area in Cyprus, with an urban population of 160,000-176,700.
The Port of Limassol is one of the busiest ports in the Mediterranean transit trade and the largest port in Cyprus. It has also become one of the most important tourism, trade, and service-providing centres in the area. Limassol is renowned for its extensive cultural traditions, and is home to the Cyprus University of Technology. A wide spectrum of activities and a number of museums and archaeological sites are available to the interested visitor. Consequently, Limassol attracts a wide range of tourists mostly during an extended summer season to be accommodated in a wide range of hotels and apartments. A large marina lies near the old town, 500 meters from the Limassol medieval castle.
Limassol was built between two ancient cities, Amathus and Kourion, and during Byzantine rule it was known as Neapolis (new town). Limassol's historical centre is located around its medieval Limassol Castle and the Old Port. Today the city spreads along the Mediterranean coast and has extended much farther than the castle and port, with its suburbs stretching along the coast to Amathus. To the west of the city is the Akrotiri Area of the British Overseas Territory.
Limassol is famous in Cyprus for its festivals, like the Carnival and Wine Festival. The Limassol Carnival festival lasts for ten (10) days, with jolly and amusing masquerading. The festival starts with the entrance parade of the King Carnival, followed by a fancy-dress competition for children. During the Carnival parade in the main streets, large crowds from all over the island gather to watch the floats with the serenade and other masqueraded groups. Many fancy-dress balls and parties take place at many hotels every night.
ARCHBISHOP PALACE area - Nicosia
Archbishop Palace area in Nicosia, Cyprus is a gorgeous area housing besides the Archbishop Palace, several other museums like the Byzantine Museum, Cyprus Folk art museum, Modern art museum etc
The area is located east of Ledra street and unfortunately is poorly signed which means you will have to either ask the locals (mainly speaking Greek) or use your map orientation skills.
Once here you are wonderfully paid for your stoicism with the view of the above mentioned locations, minus the impossibility to visit the Archbishop palace at this moment in time. However you can visit all the other museums, almost daily up to 5pm and get a glimpse of what is important for the Cypriot culture.
And I sincerely hope all this information was of some help to you.
