2024 Cyprus Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in December)

#100waysoftravel What comes to mind when you think of Cyprus? If you are like most people, you picture miles of golden beaches, glistening ocean waves, and the Old-World charm of cobblestone streets and outdoor cafes. If you thought of all that, you are spot on. But did you think of cats? This dreamy island is also known as “The Island of Cats.” Yes, cats. There are more cats in Cyprus than there are people. You read that right. To be specific, there are around 1.5 million cats with 1.2 million servants. That is great news for cat lovers. This trip could be purrrr-fection! If you are a lesser fan of the feline species, you might want to head somewhere where you are not overwhelmed by fur. Cypriots tend to be cat lovers. Cats sit in cafes and offices, wander the streets, and sun themselves on any flat surface. If you sleep with your window open, you may wake up to a new friend. Part of the reason is that cats are highly valued in Cypriot history and culture. It is entirely possible that Cypriots began the tradition of human-feline connection a good 2,000 years before the Egyptians. This realization has come from a 2005 discovery, in which archaeologists discovered a tomb in which a young man and a cat had been buried side by side. But Cypriots also have practical reasons for valuing cats. The island is home to a large snake population (not to fear — they are mostly in the mountains). There are so many snakes that a fourth-century queen imported 1,000 cats to tackle the problem. Contemporary cats continue to keep the serpentine population at bay.#animalcontact

Beautiful little coptic church with the most amazing sunsets. Yes you can get married here and they have candles you can light for a donation. Truly beautiful inside. Lovely place to visit. You can go in and have a look, but you must have a shirt and at least shorts to the knees, respect, and all that. The area behind the church is dominated by a huge pile of discarded sea weed, cleared from the beaches. In April the shoreline is a riot of wildflowers, well worth a visit. Also here is official “The sunset point of Cyprus” And so many cute cats around, so if you have something tasty for them they’ll appreciate it#beachlife #mytripvlog #paphos

What i love about cyprus are these old buildings which adds alot of flavour to the place! Some travelling insights I gain from travelling in Cyprus 1) No trains lines, you can only rely on buses and taxis. With taxis being very expensive, it leaves just buses as the cheapest form of transport. If you have no choice, Bolt taxi app is available in Cyprus, but I notice the supply of taxis is really low and very high price. 2) There are 2 airports, one on Paphos and one is Larnaca. 3) Alot of places accept credot cards, all of the restaurants, shops i have been to all do. However, if you visit village shops or take buses, only CASH! So remember to have spare euros.

i love Cyprus #travel

Cyprus offers a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. Pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and a rich history make it ideal for all travelers. Explore ancient ruins, hike in the Troodos Mountains, or relax in vibrant coastal towns like Paphos. The friendly locals and delicious Mediterranean cuisine add to the charm, making Cyprus a fantastic holiday destination.

#weekendgetaways That's right, Cyprus is credited to have been the birth place of Aphrodite and Adonis. May be that is the reason why so many wishful honeymooners head to Cyprus for holidays. Mine wasn't quite it but a nice weekend long getaway. To think of it now, it could make for a splendid weekend destination. Let me fill you in some more. Located in the Eastern Mediterranean, boasts abundant coastal beauty. One renowned spot, on the island’s southern flank, is Petra tou Romiou, also known as Aphrodite’s Rock. You’ll be enchanted by its rugged cliffs, clear waters, and captivating rock stacks emerging from the sea. Pissouri is a wonderful locale for swimming and sunbathing. Nestled beneath the scenic village of Pissouri, this beach greets you with its laid-back atmosphere, while tavernas both on the beach and in Pissouri itself will tempt you with fresh seafood and traditional Cypriot cuisine.#beachlife #summergetaway #sunny

#2024wish Cyprus is home to several traditional villages that offer a glimpse into the island’s rich cultural heritage and natural beauty. These villages are members of the island’s agritourism project, which works to support traditional artisanal and agricultural businesses. These rural industries have been left almost unchanged for centuries, whether it’s wine, crop cultivation or handicrafts. Away from the popular tourist hotspots and beach towns, these villages offer a glimpse into the real island, its rural beauty, its people, and their famous hospitality. These villages offer unique experiences and attractions, including artisanal and agricultural businesses.

🌈 Dear friends, let me share my recent travel experience in Cyprus! This beautiful Mediterranean island is really a place where people linger. 🚗 Transportation: Traveling in Cyprus, renting a car is the best choice. Self-driving can conveniently explore every corner of the island. Remember to choose an automatic car, it will be much more convenient! 🏠 Accommodation: The cost of living here is very low, so you can choose some comfortable hotels or homestays. 🍽️ Catering: You can't miss the food here! Experience a different style. 🕌 Attractions: 1️⃣ Larnaca Salt Lake: This is the home of flamingos and mosques. The scenery of the salt lake is very unique, it is recommended to go and enjoy the beautiful sunset at sunset. 2️⃣ Ayia Napa: There are Santorini-style churches and open-air sculpture parks, and the fun of exploring sea caves. The sunset here is also very beautiful! 3️⃣ Nicosia: Join a local group to learn more about the history and culture of the only divided capital in the world. Walk through the Ledra checkpoint, visit the Büyük Han caravan station, and feel the unique charm of this city. 4️⃣ Kakopetria: This is a summer resort in the mountains, where you can enjoy waterfalls and the Agios Stegis World Heritage Church. 5️⃣ Tomb of the Kings: Visit the 4th century World Heritage Tomb of the Dignitaries and feel the charm of this ancient culture. 6️⃣ Stone of Love: Enjoy one of the best sunsets here, and experience the legend of circling the rock with your lover on the night of the full moon to get eternal love. 💖 Feelings: This trip made me deeply feel the enthusiasm and friendliness of the Cypriot people. Although divided into north and south, the islanders resist the political game of the great powers with love, and build a bridge between different religions and cultures. The cost of living here is low, and the sun is all year round, it is really a very suitable country for travel! If you also want to have a different trip, come to Cyprus!
