that is geographically located in Asia but has clear links with Europe. Cyprus is well known
for its warm weather and sandy beaches, but that isn't everything the island has to offer.
For travelers who are interested in more than sand and sun, Cyprus can offer archaeological sites,
fine Byzantine churches, monasteries and museums among its historic tourist attractions.
It's also a wonderful place to go hiking with an incredible wealth of unique flora and fauna.
Larnaca Historical evidence shows that Larnaca is
the oldest city in Cyprus, boasting a history that dates back more than 6,000 years. Many visitors
today pass through Larnaca because there is the largest international airport on the island.
Not too far away from the runway, the Salt Lake packed full of flocks of pink
flamingos during spring is located. Although Larnaca is a seaside resort,
but it kept its local soul. Ayia Napa
If nightlife is what you re searching for while being in Cyprus, then the resort destination
of Ayia Napa is the perfect spot to visit. Ayia Napa is situated on the southeastern peninsula.
This is the place of live music, bars, clubs, great drinks and a vibrant, youthful atmosphere.

or the Thalassa Museum, which boasts a unique collection of exhibits explaining the importance
of the sea to the development of the region. Troodos Mountains

traditional houses and cobblestone alleys. They are also home to some of Cyprus most amazing

village of Pedoulas should be top of your things to do list.
Famagusta Old City On the east cost of
Cyprus the city of Famagusta with the deepest harbor on the island is situated. As a result,
