Cyprus
Crossroads of 3 Continents
(Asia, Africa, Europe)

With a history that dates back thousands of years, Cyprus is the largest and most cosmopolitan island in the Eastern Mediterranean. The fact that it is the birthplace of Aphrodite, Goddess of Beauty herself, is no coincidence - the Mediterranean climate is fantastic and the natural beauty is stunning. Breathtaking mountains and a coastline of beaches with crystal clear waters make Cyprus a dream destination where visitors can enjoy swimming and watersports 365 days a year.

The rich history of the island continually offers its residents new experiences, and its ancient monuments, castles, churches and museums all combine to create a unique backdrop.
 
 
 
Cyprus today is a member of the EU with the Euro as its currency and a relatively low cost of living. The residents of the island benefit from advanced infrastructure within hospitals, streets, schools, universities, amusement centres, restaurants, theatres, supermarkets and services across the board.

The official languages of the island are Greek and English. Due to the increased flow of visitors to the island, the use of French, German and Russian is rapidly becoming more common.

 
 
Cyprus is connected with the larger European capitals on a daily basis by air, and residents enjoy one of the highest standards of living amongst European states in issues regarding safety, health, economy and everyday life.

Safety: One of the reasons the island is so popular amongst the other 26 European states which admire the low crime rate.
