CyprusBuyuk Han
Buyuk Han is a 16th-century caravanserai in Nicosia. Its square courtyard is framed by arched galleries and stone staircases. Sunlight filters through the open roof, highlighting worn cobblestones and wooden shutters. Small shops and cafés occupy the ground floor, while rooms above retain rustic charm and history.
Buyuk Han stands out for its preserved Ottoman architecture and vibrant artisan culture. Visitors linger for handcrafted souvenirs, local coffee, and quiet corners to watch daily life. Its blend of history and contemporary use makes it a living landmark. The courtyard's calm energy lingers long after you leave.
