Cyprus sits at the crossroads of three continents in the Eastern Mediterranean - and has a fabulous climate with approximately 340 days of sunshine a year. The long hot summers and short mild winters have long made it the favoured destination for visitors and those wishing to settle permanently in a land well known for its friendly, hospitable people.
With excellent high standards of medical care, modern telecommunications, a low crime rate, a high standard of living and cheaper cost of living compared to most European countries Cyprus continues to maintain is position as a magnet for foreign investment. Accession as a full member of the European Union in 2004 and entry into the Euro currency zone in 2008 have strengthened Cyprus' stable, healthy economy - and a place where the shrewd investor is staking a claim. The capital, Nicosia, is fast becoming a significant centre of commerce in the wider region.
For private investors, Cyprus has enjoyed a sustained buoyancy and growth in property values. Major infrastructure improvements have been commissioned for completion during the next few years and oil exploration licences have been granted off the southern coast. With completely redeveloped airports at Paphos and Larnaca, upgraded air links to the rest of Europe and the Middle East, the attraction of Cyprus just continues to grow.
For visitors and permanent residents alike, Cyprus is there to be enjoyed - and life lived to the full. The island is blessed with a rich cultural heritage and a landscape of contrasts - accessible in no time at all. From the peaks of Mount Olympus in the Troodos Mountains to the sun kissed sandy beaches of the Mediterranean Sea, this is all within easy reach for everyone to enjoy.
The normal demands of everyday living in Cyprus are very similar to what you might expect anywhere - such as finding the right schools for your children, arranging health care and doing the family shopping at the local supermarket. But that's where the similarity ends !
