Title
Mountain Pass on the North Coast, Tourism Thematic Issue, Republic of Cyprus
Description
In 1971 tourism in Cyprus was still in its infancy though Europeans and especially Britons were beginning to appreciate the good life that the island had to offer. Even so, tourist arrivals were still under 260,000 a year. The Turkish invasion of 1974 almost completely devastated the tourist industry but it awakened in the population a determination to rebuild and excel as never before. Today tourism is the backbone of the economy. Luxury hotels abound and the island's tourist industry caters for the rich and not so rich visitors. By 2001 yearly arrivals were just under 2.7 million.
