Larnaca District is one of the six districts of Cyprus. Its main town is Larnaca. A small part of the district was occupied by the Turkish army in 1974.
The authorities in Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus administer the Turkish-controlled parts of Larnaca District as part of Nicosia District.
Larnaca hosts both a port and the island's most important airport, Larnaca International Airport. The town also hosts the Hala Sultan Tekke mosque which is sometimes referred to as the third holiest site in Islam by some orientalists. However, this is not part of orthodox Muslim belief.
