Pitsilia
A worthwhile day trip from Limassol is to explore the unspoilt
villages in the foothills of the Troodos Mountains, in the region
known as Pitsilia. A rental car or a hired taxi is necessary
because public transport is infrequent. Many of the villages make
their own wines, and other products such as honey and cheeses. The
picturesque houses, painted churches and red-tiled roofs are
striking, and many restored houses have been turned into cafes or
restaurants.
