Powerstrip 3.75 Visit Cyprus For A Memorable Holiday

I visited Cyprus a couple of years back and had a truly memorable holiday experience. Cyprus offers around 300 days of sunshine each year with temperatures reaching thirty degrees in each of the summer months. Ayia Napa was where I stayed which has been known as the alternative to Ibiza however is now turned itself into a more family orientated place.

However still offers magnificent nightlife. Some of the best nightclubs worth checking out including the Castle Club, Hollywood Boulevard, BedRock Inn and Club Abyss, the latter being a club like nothing else you will probably have experienced.

Paphos is situated on the west of the island and is the place to go for a cultural experience. You can learn about Greek gods that are related to the island including Aphrodite which is the Greek Goddess of love. Starting out the Greek God Cronus threw something into the sea which turned out to be something that turned into Aphrodite. It was then carried by the waves to Cyprus and has received many visitors over the years that have come to pay their respects.

Paphos is also popular for its beautiful old harbour as well as its lovely promenade and archaeological museum, the Byzantine castle of Paphos, the temple of Aphrodite and the Tombs of Kings and St Paul’s Pillar.

Cyprus has many attractive beaches to tempt you as well as ancient ruins and beautiful mountains, amazing smelling olive trees and citrus groves. The mountain ranges are a great place to visit in the cooler winter months as they offer great walks and perfect for cycling, the views are simply stunning.

For me visiting the old wine-producing villages was a fantastic experience, seeing the primitive ways of living with only the basics and how they go about producing the wine in their own traditional methods.

Cyprus is ideally situated as a jump off point for visiting other exotic locales situated nearby the island. You can find short cruises that leave Cyprus most days to the Greek Islands or you could visit Egypt or the Middle East.

Holidays to Cyprus would mean you experience an amazing cultural place rich in history, with beautiful beaches and sweet smelling mountain ranges.
