Such a typical model of the Mesaoritikis architecture is the now deserted khan of Palie Pasha, which is situated on the west bank of the Royal River and on the East of the village Mari at Larnaka District.  It was built during Turkish occupation at the junction of the streets-paths which led from Larnaka to Limassol and to the only river cross ,back then, where the ancient miners of Kalavassos channeled their ore in the port of Vasilikos.
