In Cyprus, travelers are immersed in a culture that draws on Europe, the Middle East, and 9000 years of constant invasion. Crusader castles rub shoulders with ancient vineyards, frescoed monasteries overlook citrus orchards, and sandy, sun-soaked feet tread Roman mosaic floors.
Popular Destinations in Cyprus
Limassol
Cut length wise by the Turkish/Greek border, the island of Cyprus leads two lives. The Turkish side is traditional and Islamic, while the Greek side is a very modern vacation destination.
Larnaca
Larnaca is a coastal city in southeastern Cyprus, built around a broad bay on the Mediterranean Sea. It is one of the island's main urban centers and combines a long waterfront, sandy beaches, historic neighborhoods, and archaeological sites. The palm-lined Finikoudes promenade runs beside the central beach and continues toward the old harbor and medieval castle.
