Cyprus Away From The Beaches

Omodos

Omodos is in the Troodos about 45km north-west of Limassol.

Don't think have been there, but looking at this vid, it's gonna get added to the list to visit.



This is the site (with an English version) of the village council...

Nice village, i used to pass through there on epic bike rides when i was young. If you're in the area Arsos is also a lovely village :)
Also check out Tzelefos Bridge if you're up that way

There is a really nice traditional Laiko taverna in Omodhos as well. Really loved the village and the food.

I can't remember the name, but it was a very discreet place in a tradional stone house.
