Voroklini (Greek: Βορόκληνη), more commonly known by its unofficial name Oroklini (Ορόκλινη), is a village in Larnaca District, Cyprus. Situated to the northeast of Larnaca, its population in 2011 was 6,134. The village houses residents from both Cyprus and abroad, with British citizens by far making up the largest percentage of its foreign-born population.
