The beautiful island nation of Cyprus is home to some notable attractions in Greek history, such as the Archaeological Site of the Tomb of Kings. For a site closely related to Greek mythology, visit Aphrodite's Rock, which legend has it was the birthplace of the Goddess of Love. And while the waters there are beautiful, the sea is tumultuous, so swimming is not recommended. Fortunately, there is no shortage of stunning beaches on this island with calmer waters.
