Pissouri, Kalopanayiotis on list of UN’s best tourism villages
December 20, 2022
Cyprus’ coastal Pissouri and Kalopanayiotis in the mountains made it onto the UN’s ‘Best Tourism Villages’ of 2022, alongside 30 others ranging from Austria to Vietnam.
The World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) recognised the two villages as key locations for being able to develop new opportunities for jobs and income – in a responsible and sustainable way.
Both Pissouri and Kalopanayiotis made it onto the UNWTO’s upgrade programme, meaning that they will receive support in improving elements of the areas identified as gaps.
