See & do

📍
  • Football: the Cypriot men's national soccer team play at GSP Stadium (capacity 22,800) by the A1 ten km south of city centre.
  • Three city clubs share GSP Stadium: APOEL, Omonoia and Olymiakos all in the Cypriot top tier.
  • 4 Horse Racing (Nicosia Race Club), Ayios Dometios, ☏ +357 22782727, fax: +357 22775690, info@nicosiaraceclub.com.cy. The small and picturesque race track has a colonial feel to it. Emotions run high here every Wednesday and Sunday. Check website or call them for race timetable.
  • 5 Tennis. Cyprus plays its home Davis Cup matches at the Field Club. Clay courts line the moat that was once covered with water protecting the city from medieval invaders. It has a colonial feel to it. Again, if you are lucky you might catch Marcos Baghdatis playing for Cyprus. (updated Jan 2020)
