Skala is the former Turkish quarter of Larnaca, centered around the old market area near the seafront. Today, its narrow streets are lined with restored traditional houses, many converted into cozy cafes, art galleries, and tavernas. The neighborhood retains a relaxed, bohemian atmosphere, contrasting with the busier tourist strips. Visitors can wander the alleys, discover hidden courtyards, and enjoy local coffee or meze while soaking up the historic character.
