President's message
Welcome to Cyprus
Dear Visitor,
Cyprus, is a magical island in a warm blue sea, a little world-within-a-world, so old yet so ageless, where History, Legend and Reality blend in charm and harmony.
Weathered by a long and colourful history, and steeped in a rich and fascinating culture, the genuine hospitality of its people have made Cyprus an ideal place for the discerning traveler.
Perhaps there is no other place on earth where within 9,000 square kilometers there is enough diversified topography to allow numerous different pursuits to be followed. The island is a real paradise for everyone who wishes to relax purposefully. Botanists, painters, golfers, photographers, sailing, walking and biking enthusiasts, bird watchers, art lovers, geologists, students of folklore and lovers of unaltered culture, will discover a most original island. The hospitable Cypriots practice time honoured crafts such as wine and lace making, wood carving, weaving and pottery.
The Cyprus Association for Cultural & Special Interest Tourism, which promotes the islands unique cultural and special interest attractions, is looking forward to welcoming you to Cyprus.
