Thread: Holidays in Cyprus

Cyprus is the largest island in the eastern Mediterranean and is situated south of Turkey. The two main mountain ranges are the Pentadactylos in the north and the Troodos in central and south-western part of the island. Between them is the fertile plain of Messaoria.

Cyprus has long been a crossing point between Europe, Asia and Africa and still has many traces of successive civilisations – Roman theatres and villas, Byzantine churches and monasteries, Crusader castles and pre-historic habitats.

The island’s main economic activities are tourism, clothing and craft exports and merchant shipping. Traditional crafts include embroidery, pottery and copperwork.

when you talk about Cyprus, I remembered the rap group Cypress Hill.

anyway, I didnt know that Cyprus has a lot to offer.

might put this in my holiday list.

Every day, there's been a party and drinking for me in AYIA NAPA....

I loved Paphos - beautiful place, really great restaurants and something for everyone really. Only a small area with loud bars and thats easily avoidable if you want to but the wider area is beautiful and the standard of accomodation seemed in general to be great. The Cypriots were incredibly friendly and although it costs more to get / stay there than most med resorts, when you are there is very cheap.

There are loads of places worth seeing in Cyprus but it depends what you're in to. If you want a bit of History there are some interestng ruins, moasiacs and an amphitheatre at Curium, just outside Limassol, there are also impressive mosaics in Paphos. Nicosia has many museums and landmarks, you can also see across the border to the turkish held part of the city. For scenary the Akamas in the North west is stunning and the troodos mountains are lovely at any time of year. popular mountain villages are Omodhos, Kakopetria, Platres and Lefkara where they make lace and silver jewellery. Kykkos monastry is also a major attraction and is in the west Troodos.

The island is small enough to be able to see lots of things in a few days and notwhere is more than a couple of hours drive away.
