Cyprus isn’t a secret. It’s been fought over, invaded, divided, kissed by gods, and carved up by empires since the beginning of recorded time. Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Crusaders, Ottomans, Brits – they all came, all left something behind. You taste it in the food, hear it in the language, feel it in the stone beneath your feet. It’s layered.
Cyprus is the kind of place where you can swim in turquoise water in the morning and walk through a Bronze Age tomb by lunch. Where dinner might be ten dishes long, eaten slowly under a fig tree with strangers who feel like cousins by the third glass of zivania.
Whether you’re into hiking, cultural activities or simply want to do very little but relax under the sun and indulge in the delights of Cypriot cuisine – there’s a little bit for everyone in Cyprus.
