Legend has it that the first settlement in the area that became Larnaca (then known as Kition) was founded by Noah’s great-grandson Kittim. At one time Kition was the principal colony in Cyprus, of the ancient civilisation of Phoenicia until becoming part of the Greek Hellenistic world.

The ancient site is at the north end of modern day Larnaca, with the earliest remains believed to go back to the Mycenean age (circa 1400-1100 BC). It was during this period that The Kition City Kingdom was established by the Greeks, and it enjoyed the dual position of being both a rich port and a major centre of the copper trade. It is also alluded to, in a list of allies of King Assurbanipal of Assyria, that Kition was still a recent settlement in the 7th century BC. The discovery of an official monument of King Sargon II also suggests that Kition was the administrative centre during this time.

During the Ionian Greek revolts of the 4th century BC, Kition led the side that was loyal to Persia and was besieged by an Athenian force in 449 BC. Relics from this siege can still be seen at Larnaca’s ancient site.

The Byzantine period of Larnaca was of great importance. This period left many great monuments, including the 9th century AD Basilica of Saint Lazarus – a stunning reminder of Larnaca’s rich history. The town regained its former standing during the time it was under Ottoman rule, when it became the diplomatic and commercial centre of Cyprus, and it was into Larnaca that the British landed in 1878; thus beginning their rule of the island – a rule that lasted until 1960.

The more recent development of the city follows the fast development of the entire country. Larnaca’s population in 1973 was just 22,000 but after the Turkish invasion of 1974 when 200,000 people were forcibly displaced by the Turkish army, Larnaca welcomed over 40,000 refugees, tripling its population practically overnight, adding another chapter to its history and helping to reinforce its growing reputation as a prime tourist destination, with car hire in Larnaca [http://www.easycar.com/car-hire/location/Larnaca.aspx] helping visitors discover the ancient site and monuments for themselves.

Being in existence from the early dawn of history, Larnaca has had its fair share of visitors over the years with the Greeks, the Persians, the Egyptians, the Romans, the Venetians, the Turks and the British having occupied the land at one point. The visitors continue to come to the city to this day, with three million tourists entering Cyprus annually from Larnaca’s airport, Port and the Marina, eager to take a step back into ancient times.

Visiting France is always a challenge, because there are so many things you can visit you don’t even know where to start, but Paris is always a good begging, as it offers attractions like The Eiffel Tower and Napoleon’s Grave. The Eiffel tower has been opened in 1899 at the universal exposition and it quickly became a symbol of the French capital.

In France you can find attraction all over the place, not only in its Capital city. Traditional country regions offer different kinds of hotel accommodations, witch depend on specific, tradition and location. When deciding to go see the non-modern regions of France, you can book in a hotel that will offer comfortable rooms at low prices and will allow you to taste traditional French cooking. The whole world knows that culinary refinement originates in France. It is believed that the traditional French dishes are unforgettable, so take into consideration booking into a motel outside the city if you want to experience this unforgettable taste.

Regions that often get visited by tourists have developed hotel accommodations that offer special experiences. The French Cote D’Azur shows a great number of tourist locations. Famous festivals are held on the Cote D’Azur, and if you decided to find a hotel here, you may as well go to one. Such a resort is the one where an annual film festival is held, called Cannes, I’m sure you’ve heard of it. Negresco hotel in Nice is a place where special treatments can be experienced, but it is very expensive. For music fans there are big news: the famous jazz festival held in July is a perfect reason to booking into a hotel near it.

Hotel accommodations in Paris are strategically placed near palaces, squares, picturesque regions with modern architecture, museums like The Luvre witch is one of the richest and wealthiest museums in the world, or tent sites perfect for a Black Diamond tent.

Visiting a famous museum or cathedral has it’d downside: you have to stay in a big city where hotels are more expensive. If you want to have a nice vacation but at low costs, then going on a tour of the country side is the best choice. For nature lovers, tent renting is available. There’s an additional alternative to country side if you want an inexpensive vacation: less famous cities.
