Cyprus

Cyprus occupies an island position in the eastern Mediterranean. Its western districts open toward the sea around Paphos, while the Troodos Mountains form the island’s high interior and the broad Mesaoria plain extends to the northeast. Long coastlines, dry summers and mild winters have shaped settlement, farming and travel here for centuries. Paphos Archaeological Park is a UNESCO World Heritage site, known for Roman-era floor mosaics, and the nearby coast is associated in classical tradition with Aphrodite. Cypriot life also carries Greek and Turkish cultural influences, expressed in food, music and everyday customs.
