Nisou
Nisou is a village in the Nicosia District of Cyprus, just north of Pera Chorio and it is about 15 kilometres from the capital.
It is built at the north bank of the Yialia River. The old road of Nicosia-Limassol goes through the village, while the new road comes from northwest of the village.
In the older years, the village resembled a small island since it was surrounded by the Yialia River. The river would come from the mountains of Machera and would split at the Nisou area into two parts which would join again towards the East. That is how it got its name Nisos or Nisou.
