Cyprus and the city of Limassol

Cyprus offers an enviable lifestyle in a clean and healthy environment with a high standard of living. Living and studying in Cyprus are directly related to fabulous weather, beautiful nature, art and culture, safety and above all, hospitable and warm people. It is the combination of all these factors that makes the experience of studying on the island extremely desirable and attractive. The balance between work and family is unique and truly difficult to match.

The UNDP Human Development Index Report 2013 ranked Cyprus 31st out of 187 countries for the quality of life.

The Knight Frank Report ranked Cyprus in the Fall of 2013 as the 5th best place for lifestyle among major European cities and other competitive destinations. The report was also published in the Financial Times in October 2013.

About Cyprus

Places to go in Cyprus

Cyprus

The beautiful island-nation of Cyprus is located in the south-eastern basin of the Mediterranean Sea, at the crossroads of Europe, Asia and Africa. It is the third largest island in the Mediterranean, covering an area of 9,251 sq. km. with a population of 780,000. Cyprus offers a modern cosmopolitan society amidst a superb scenery of high mountain ranges, pine forests and fertile plains. Breath-taking coastlines and sunny beaches, and a historical and archaeological heritage of ten thousand years make the island the ideal place to live and study.
Limassol, Cyprus

Still known to many as Limassol, Lemesos is one of Cyprus’ most underrated cities. Although fringed on its eastern edge by a glut of bland-looking developments with its eye firmly on the tourism industry, the core of this city is full of character. Wrapped around the dinky castle, the central old town radiates out in a squiggle of lanes where old shuttered houses and modern boutiques both squeeze themselves into the fray. It’s an area buzzing with cafes, bars and restaurants that are as popular with locals as they are with visitors.
Ayia Napa, Cyprus

Ayia Napa is perfect for those wanting an exciting nightlife or some relaxation in this tranquail old fishing village. Situated in the south east of Cyprus, this resort is famous for its glamorous beaches and colourful nightlife. Although Ayia Napa holidays are suitable for families, it is known as a party capital for young people so be aware that it will be very busy in the summer. The beaches are one of the focal points of this town as they can only be described as stunning. The rugged coastline has a number of bays and coves which are worth exploring, as is the harbour situated by Nissi Beach. There are plenty of attractions to keep everyone entertained on holidays to Ayia Napa, but if that is not enough you can also head to nearby resorts to check out what they have to offer. With great weather all year round, whether you are sunbathing on the beach or taking part in some watersports, holidays to Ayia Napa are perfect for you!
Paphos, Cyprus

The 'Tombs of the Kings' is the impressive necropolis that is located just outside the walls, to the north and east of Pafos town. It was built during the Hellenistic period (3rd century B.C.) to satisfy the needs of the newly founded Nea Paphos. Its name is not connected with the burial of kings, as the royal institution was abolished in 312 B.C., but rather with the impressive character of its burial monuments. The 'Tombs of the Kings' was the place where the higher administrative officers and distinguished Ptolemaic personalities as well as the members of their families were buried. The necropolis was continuously used as a burial area during the Hellenistic and Roman periods (3rd century B.C.-beginning of 4th century A.D.). There is sufficient evidence to support the fact that the first Christians also used the site for their burials, while at the same time the site constituted an endless quarry. Squatters established themselves in some of the tombs during the Medieval period and made alterations to the original architecture.
Kato Lefkara, Cyprus

Kato (Lower) Lefkara is a village of the Larnaca district and it is located about 34 kilometres south-west of the city of Larnaca. The community is built on an average altitude of 480 metres. The terrain is hilly and the altitude in the north-east of the settlement reaches up to 417 metres ("Shinokefalos" hilltop). The landscape is fragmented by the rivers Syrkatis and Argaki, and of St. Minas, all tributaries of the Pentaschoinos river.
