Other useful Information
|
Cyprus is one of the favourite holiday
destinations in Europe, located at the Eastern end of the Mediterranean
Sea. The island offers a high level of tourist services and attracts
more than 2 million tourists every year.
Pafos is a lovely holiday destination situated in the western part of
the island. There is unlimited choices of things to do, people are
friendly and the nature is unique. The main tourist area of the Pafos
region is Kato Paphos which is situated around the old Venetian fort.
There are many shops, restaurants, bars and discos to be found in and
around the hotels and along the picturesque fishing harbour. It is also
an important historic place with many archaeological sites, the mosaics,
the Odeon, the Tomb of the kings and many other old Roman remains. These
historic sites are included in Unesco list of worlds cultural heritage
sites.
Geroskipou is situated at the North-East of Pafos and covers an area of
nine square kilometers which include the area reaching down to the sea.
The wild beauty of the rocks, the calmness of the bright green fields
and tranquility that the blue colour of the sea, create a fabulous
combination. A comlbination that justifies the mlyth about the Holy
Gardens of the Goddess Aphrodite which inform us that they were situated
at the place where Geroskipou stands today. The beauty of the landscape
and its rich history render Geroskipou a place of attraction for every
visitor. Anyone visiting Geroskipou will be able to enjoy the
tranquility of a small traditional community without being forced to be
deprived of any of the services which a big city has to offer.
The Geroskipou beach has been awarded the "Blue Flag of Europe" for its
crystal clear waters and superb facilities to bathers.
