The sun-soaked island of Cyprus is located in the warm waters of the eastern Mediterranean Sea. Remnants of 10,000 years of human habitation are display. It also has impressive beaches, abundant watersports, and a uniquely blended cuisine featuring aspects of its Greek-Turkish population.
This DK Eyewitness Top Ten Guide prioritizes the top ten tourist attractions on the island, sorts the top ten of everything else, and provides recommendations on what to see, where to stay, and what to eat by area of the island. The last chapter covers the practicalities of Cyprus' somewhat remote location and its politically divided status. This slim has lots of maps and color photographs. Of note, Cyprus has preserved and/or restored significant aspects of its Neolithic, Greek, Byzantine, Crusader and Ottoman heritage. Also of note, Cyprus is working to preserve its magnificent seashore. Well recommended as a planning resource to the adventurous tourist.
