Tourism in Cyprus

Petra tou Romiou ("Rock of the Greek") where legend says that Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love, emerged from the sea

Tourism in Cyprus occupies a dominant position in the country's economy,[1][2] and has significantly impacted its culture and multicultural development throughout the years.[3][4] In 2006, the tourism industry made up 10.7% of the country's GDP and the total employment in the tourism industry was estimated at 113,000 jobs.[5] With a usual minimum of around 4 million tourist arrivals per year,[6] it is the 40th most popular destination in the world[7][8] and the 6th most popular per capita of local population.[9] Cyprus has been a full member of the World Tourism Organization since 1975.[10]
