Yes, yes... alright, already... but Paphos!... The last time was there, there was a harbour, a pelican and a chap selling camel rides.... and the Paphites would never, ever let us forget it if (God forbid) they won.

Too many English in Paphos for the place to be truly cultured.

Besides Ayia Napa has a Sea-Monster, a Waterpark and holds the Guinness World Record for the longest chain of syrtaki dancers...

....and is full of drunken British yobs leaving large piles of culture in the street.

I hope they put up their prices for the extra tourists.

I usually get better service and cheaper prices because I'm a Cypriot.

Why isn't Ayia Napa on the list? Last time I was there I indulged in a lot of culture...

oooh you're right mate... bleeding 'ell why hasn't Ayia Napa been put forward?

AN is a village. Better propose it as European Village of Culture.

Wow dude, that long ey?
The town grew 60% in 10 years.
Nothing to marvel over, but Nic and Lim are just bigger versions of the same thing.
Smaller but a nicer tourist oriented scenario with great historical places of interest too.

May encounter lingo problems though.

Well the other thing about the last time was in Paphos (at least the central touristy/harbour area anyway), you could get CY coffees for two and still have change from a selleenee.

Mind you did stop off for a break a couple of years ago on some kind of one-way system and had some very nice just squeezed orange juices from a nice chap in a bar for less than a couple of euro.
