What You Can’t Miss in Cyprus

• Aphrodite’s Rock (Petra tou Romiou): Located on the road between Limassol and Paphos, legend has it that this is where Aphrodite – the goddess of love and beauty –– was born from the sea foam. It is said that if you sail around the rock at sunrise, you will be granted eternal youth.
   
• The Troodos Mountains: If you want to take a break from the heat of the beach, head to the “green heart” of the island. Here you’ll find cool air, Byzantine churches listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and picturesque villages like Omodos, famous for its local wine and handmade lace.
   
• Paphos and the Mosaics: The entire city of Paphos is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Roman mosaics discovered here are among the best-preserved in the world and tell fascinating mythological stories.

Gastronomy: A treat for your senses

Don’t leave Cyprus without trying grilled halloumi, the famous cheese that doesn’t melt when cooked but remains delicious and crispy. Be sure to try Cypriot “meze” – up to 20 select small dishes that will introduce you to the diversity and richness of the local cuisine, from hummus and olives to slow-braised meat.
