If you are looking for a holiday destination that has enjoyed a rich and varied history, with many thriving civilisations, from the Greek to the Roman and Byzantine, then Cyprus is a must for your list. Cyprus is an island country in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea and is the third largest and third most populous island in the Mediterranean. The main cities of Cyprus are Nicosia, Limassol, Larnaka, Paphos, Famagusta and Kyrenia, with the capital being Nicosia. Interestingly, Paphos is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, so if you have an interest in history, a visit to Paphos is a must.
Some of the most famous attractions on the island include Paphos Harbour and Castle, nearby Aphrodite’s Rock on the south-western coast, Curium and Kolossi Castle near Limassol, the city of Nicosia and its ancient and mysterious city walls, the wonderful Troodos Mountains and the delights of Northern Cyprus.
