Tradiotionally Turkish in the north and Greek in the south, Cyprus today is an eclectic mix of these two strong influences. Called the "Island of Love", because of its warm, friendly people and scenic beauty. The Ammochostos region with its many picturesque villages and heritage sites is particularly captivating. Sun-drenched white sandy beaches with ample facilities for some great water sports make this a beach lover's paradise. Also, a well-known party destination, Cyprus has a raging nightlife. Typical food is kleftiko (oven-baked lamb) and mezedes (dips, salads and other appetisers). Language: Greek, Turkish, English Currency: Cyprus pound £C
