A visual guide to Cyprus - from turquoise coastlines and ancient cities to mountain villages, hidden roads and long Mediterranean evenings.
Cyprus is an island of contrasts. The official tourism portal describes a destination where seaside resorts, cosmopolitan cities, traditional villages, nature trails and archaeological heritage sit within the same journey.
One morning can begin beside the Mediterranean and end among pine forests, stone villages and mountain roads.
Five regions, five completely different moods. Build your trip around the places that make you want to stay a little longer.

Follow the coastline, climb into the Troodos range, stop in a village and let the island change around you.
Paphos faces the open Mediterranean to the west, making the evening light part of the experience. From the harbour to Petra tou Romiou and beyond, sunset becomes a reason to slow down.
Cyprus has a coastline that changes character from region to region - sandy resort beaches, quiet coves, rocky coastlines and clear Mediterranean water.
The Troodos range offers a completely different side of Cyprus - pine forests, traditional villages, stone houses, Byzantine churches and winding roads through the interior.
Walk the waterfront, follow the light and let the Mediterranean decide when the day ends.
Cliffs, sea caves, clear water and one of the island's most dramatic coastal landscapes.
Leave the coast behind and discover another Cyprus among forests, villages and mountain air.
Pack less. Stay longer. Take the road that looks interesting. Cyprus is waiting somewhere between the sea and the mountains.
