As a diverse and native eco-system, Vouni Panagias is an outstanding region of its kind in Cyprus. Ancient monasteries and oak trees forests in the mountainous regions, while closer to sea level age-old vineyards and water springs enhance the landscapes’ special scenery. Effective methods to regulate tourism, which raises the quality of life of the people and improves the environment, are constantly being promoted. In 2009, Vouni Panagias was awarded as a European Destination of Excellence (EDEN) in the category "Tourism and protected areas".
