Cyprus is located in the eastern Mediterranean Sea,
64 km south of Turkey and 97 km west of Syria. The island consists of two east-west
running mountain ranges. The Kyrenia Mountains, in the north, and
the Troödos Mountains, in the south, separated by a wide fertile
pain, the Mesaoria, which is open to the sea at both ends. The Troödos range includes
Mount Olympus , which rises to 1953m, which is the island's highest
point. Cyprus is the third biggest island of Mediterranean Sea
and lies on its eastern region. Its’ strategic position, between Middle East, Asia,
Africa and Europe, was the reason for the battle among many countries from the ancient
years until early 70s.
Cyprus’ fantastic weather, beautiful sandy beaches, the enormous
blue sea and peoples’ hospitality makes it one of the best options for vacations
any time of the year. Why? Because a visitor has the option of having quite holidays
up on the mountains or crazy and extreme vacations in the city, both offering fantastic
opportunities for relaxation and challenge.
