Hide Our village Pera Oreinis is a quiet village in the rural countryside of Nicosia and it is perfect for people who would like to relax and to be in contact with nature. There are some walking paths starting from the village and more trekking opportunities in the nearby Machairas Mountains, with lush forest and rivers running (in the winter and spring). Being not a touristic area, there is plenty of off-the-beaten track places to discover and enjoy just by yourself. Important historical sites can be visited in the nearby areas (Agios Irakleidios Monastery, Tamassos ancient sites, Machairas Monastery, UNESCO church of Panagia tou Araka) and Nicosia is only 30 mins away. Being a non-touristic area will give you the chance to also try delicious local food.
