Presidential Palace, Nicosia, Presidential residence in Nicosia, Cyprus.

The Presidential Palace stands in a pine woodland area of Strovolos district, featuring limestone walls and a central tower topped with a dome.

The building originated in 1932 on Snake Hill, replacing an earlier structure from 1878 that was initially destined for Sri Lanka but redirected to Cyprus.

The palace incorporates Byzantine, Gothic, and Turkish architectural elements, with columns inspired by the Aheiropoiitos Monastery and designs from multiple Cypriot regions.

Located at coordinates 35.1556, 33.3473, the palace functions as both the official residence of Cyprus's president and the center of governmental operations.

The southern facade displays carved gutters depicting human figures representing the craftsmen who built the palace, along with animals native to Cyprus.
