Orkonta Venetian Bridge

The Orkonta Venetian Bridge is located in the village of Orkonta in the Marathasa Valley of the Nicosia district.

The medieval road that crossed the valley of Marathasa followed the same course as the one the road today does, was connected with the Venetian bridge of Orkonta.

The bridge can be reached a few metres from the Orkonta station, connecting the two riverbanks of the Setrachou River.

The bridge is situated at a short distance amongst the thick vegetation however there is no specific path in order to reach it, making it relatively difficult to find.
