Cyprus is 3rd biggest island in the Mediterranean Sea, stretching 240 km east
to west and cover up an area of 9300 sq km. Cyprus has a population of about
700,000. It is an island of contrasts, from sandy beaches, vine clad slopes to
cedar-covered hilltops. The weather is sub tropical and usually the temperatures
in the summer can reach over 40 degrees, whilst it’s even likely to ski in the
Mountains of Troodos in the winter. Cyprus, an island of myths that basks
year-round in the light of the hot Mediterranean sun
A storied past 10,000 years long has seen civilizations come and go and the
likes of everyone from Alexander the Great to Cleopatra stake their claim here -
but then, people do tend to get possessive when faced with such prettiness.
Aphrodite made her habitat on Cyprus and travelers throughout antiquity came
here just to pay her tribute.
Today Cyprus is a new country that effortlessly marries European civilization
with ancient enchantment. Here you will discover a compact world of alluring
beaches and fragrant mountain peaks, vineyards studded with olive trees and
ancient ruins that stir the imagination, citrus groves and old stone villages
where sweet wine flows as freely as conversations at the local cafe. A relaxed
place where a sense of timelessness is magnified by the gentleness of the
citizens.
Cyprus Property
Cyprus has been well-liked as a holiday destination years back, and a relocation
choice for European residents; it offers particularly attractive tax rates on
pension/investment income brought into the country by non-Cypriot people.
Compared to other countries such as Spain, the process of purchasing property in
Cyprus is relatively easy. The legal framework it is based basically in the
British system and land registry is an advanced and at the same time reliable
process, which ensure security with regard to the title deeds when purchasing a
house or land in Cyprus.
