From there, the road climbs north towards Psematismenos, crossing the Lefkosia (Nicosia) - Lemesos (Limassol) motorway over the footbridge, and reaches the archaeological site of Choirokoitia.The route continues in a north­westerly direction, going through the village of Choirokoitia and ­ climbing steadily ­ through the villages of Vavla, Lagia and Ora.
