Cyprus in brief: statue

  • An island with 10,000 years of unique history, culture and civilization.
  • Standing at the crossroads of Europe, Asia and Africa, in the hub of Eastern Mediterranean, Cyprus’ strategic location has been a key factor in turning the island into an international business, financial and shipping centre.  
  • About 1,000 international enterprises, including banks and shipping companies, are using Cyprus as a base and a springboard for expanding their activities in the region and beyond.
  • The island enjoys ultra-modern telecommunications facilities, as well as excellent communications infrastructure (easy access by sea and air - 1,500 scheduled flights per month).
  • Cyprus is a cosmopolitan island, the crossroads of many nationalities and cultures, where English is spoken more widely than in any other part of Europe, outside the British Isles.
  • Cyprus ranks among the world’s leaders in per capita university graduates, and incomes are among the highest in Southern Europe.
  • Cyprus has been a member of the European Union as of May 1, 2004.
  • Cyprus is emerging as the easternmost and southernmost outpost of the European Union with privileged access to Eastern Europe, Russia, the Middle East, Asia and Africa.
  • It is a prime tourist destination for over three million tourists a year from Europe, Asia and North America.
  • It has a mild and pleasant climate with over 330 sunny days a year, beautiful beaches, quaint mountain resorts and unique archaeological sites; one of a few places in the world where one could ski in the morning and swim in the afternoon.
  • It has a fascinating local culture, exquisite cuisine, and friendly people for whom hospitality has always been one of the supreme virtues - in Cyprus you feel at home away from home. You are welcome!
