Cyprus Facts
Welcome to Cyprus, an island of legends that
basks year-round in the light of the warm
Mediterranean sun. A storied past 10,000 years
long has seen civilizations come and go and the
likes of everyone from Alexander the Great to
Cleopatra stake their claim here but then,
people do tend to get possessive when faced with
such beauty. Aphrodite made her home on Cyprus,
and travelers throughout antiquity came here just
to pay her tribute.

Today Cyprus is a modern country that
effortlessly marries European culture with
ancient enchantment. Here you will discover a
compact world of alluring beaches and fragrant
mountain peaks, vineyards studded with olive
trees and ancient ruins that stir the imagination
, citrus groves and old stone villages where
sweet wine flows as freely as conversations at
the local café.

Cyprus is the third largest island in the
Mediterranean Sea

It has a very high strategic importance. It
forms the intersection of three continents
Europe, Middle East and Africa. Cyprus was
British colony until 1960 when it got its
independence. In the year 1974 Cyprus got divided
into two separate states the north part is
called TRNC (Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus)
and the south part called The Republic of Cyprus.
The boundary separating the two sides is known as
the Green Line it runs through Nicosia
(Lefkosa) the capital of both North and South
Cyprus. Nowadays there are five border crossings
offering 24 hour unrestricted access for Cypriots
and EU citizens to pass through North and South
Cyprus.
