Why gift a star map of Nicosia?
Gifting a star map of Nicosia means capturing the brilliance of Mediterranean stars above a millennial capital encircled by Venetian walls, where East and West meet beneath a Cypriot sky of exceptional clarity. Whether for a sunset on the bastions or an evening in the Büyük Han courtyard, this map immortalises a moment beneath the sky of Aphrodite's island. A gift as rich as the civilisations that have shaped this land and as luminous as its Mediterranean nights.
The sky of Nicosia
Sitting at 35° north latitude, Nicosia enjoys a warm, dry Mediterranean climate with long summers and mild winters, offering over 300 clear nights per year. The dry air of the Mesaoria plain and the proximity of the Troodos massif, whose peaks reach 1,952 metres, provide observation sites with low light pollution. Cyprus's southern position allows observation of southern-sky constellations rarely visible from mainland Europe.
